Crash Central (Patreon)

Ugh Photoshop just randomly won't work all of a sudden on my PC. Yesterday afternoon I started getting crashes every time I open photoshop. It loads all my settings/brushes and then the program hangs and turns off. I spent hours tinkering with it trying to fix it...I found that if I deleted some of my preference files it would open once. Every launch after that it crashes. I tried updating photoshop, updating my gpu driver, doing a clean/fresh re-install. Even performed a system restore on my PC to a few days prior to the problem starting. Nothing fixes it. 

I ended up installing an older copy of photoshop this morning. It has some quirks but nothing major. It opens and does all the stuff I need it too. Thank goodness. I didn't lose any work or anything, Just lost time trying to fix this weird problem. I spent most of today getting my next set of projects prepped. They'll be up shortly ~
