Since I’ve used ACDSee for many years, I decided to give it one last chance. I guess you could call me a glutton for punishment…or maybe someone who finds it hard to give up a program that they’ve liked and used for many years.
Soon after opening Photoshop CS4 – and still having ACDSee version 3 open – Photoshop started closing unexpectedly citing DEP (Data Excecution Prevention) problems. As this has not happened before, and ACDSee is the only program that I had recently installed, I figured it was the issue. I rebooted my server and tried again – same issue. This happened a total of three times before I uninstalled ACDSee.
I’ve been working intensively with Photohop for four days now since uninstalling ACDSee and haven’t had CS4 close since. I’ve posted on their forum this latest bug and will be interested to see if I get any response (I never did when I asked if the program supported rendering by gpu). It will probably be called another “complex architectural issue”.
Call if what you want, but I still say it’s a
BUG!
