Configurator 3 Panels Cause Issue in Photoshop CS6 for Windows 8

I've come across an issue in Windows 8 when creating panels with Configurator 3 for Photoshop CS6.  I hope there is a solution.
After I create and install any panel from Configurator 3 for Photoshop CS6, working on a Windows 8 machine, the speed of clicking on and selecting layers in the Layers Panel is quite delayed, sometimes to the point of seconds. This definitely is disruptive and impedes smooth workflow entirely.  In further detail, when the panel is up and running, and then I click on a layer in the layers panel, or multiple layers, or try to switch between layers, the response is terribly lagging and slow, and layers aren't instantly selected as they were before. 
Please note, I'm getting this same issue on two different Windows 8 machines with Photoshop CS6 with any panel I create in Configurator 3.  I'm also getting this issue on a panel I didn't create, for example, the HTML Sample Panel from Adobe, downloaded from the Adobe Exchange Panel.
I've also tested creating a panel on a Mac and installing that .zxp file on my Windows machines, but I get the same result.  Note, this is NOT happening in CS5 with panels created in Configurator 3 using Windoes 8, and it's not happening on a Mac with CS6, using the same panels.  It is also NOT happening on a Windows 7 machine.  This appears to be an issue with Windows 8 and CS6 and Configurator 3.
If I close out the extension's panel tab, and then restart Photoshop, everything is back to normal, but as soon as I open the extension again, it's back to delayed interface.  And, if I don't fully close the panel and restart, the issue does not go away.
Please let me know if you've come across this and if there is a solution.  I hope someone or Adobe can help. 
Thank you.

Nick, do you have a virus scanner or malware protection software? I do and I have found that if I exclude Photoshop.exe as a process from being monitored, the problem goes away. My malware protection software has "real-time protection" and "behavior monitoring" and if I configure it to not monitor Photoshop, which uses a bunch of javascript for panels, then the slow-down goes away.
Let me know if that works for you as it did for me!

    Just purchased photoshop cs6 for windows and received installation disk.  Where do you find the serial number on the disk?  What should the serial number start with?  The disk was in the original box and I see a number that start with 910.....
    The box was in a brown envelope and there is barcode sticker on the back with more numbers.  Where should I look for the actual serial number.

    I have already copied the lesson files to my hard drive as the book instructs, however there is no autorun screen, or even a shortcut/icon that says Adobe Photoshop, the same applies for Adobe Bridge. What am I doing wrong? I need this for a college course and have already missed an assignment because I cannot get it to work. Please help?

    Here is a link to the Student Store -- you should be eligible for a discount through your school. I don't see CS6 on there, so you may have to get the cloud instead to get the discount. (You can find out from the chat window that will show up if you stay on the page for a few minutes). If you just need Photoshop, the Photographers bundle is the best deal.

  • Photoshop CS6 for both windows and mac?

    I have Photoshop CS6 for windows on an upgrade disk.  Now considering a mac air notebook to replace my old pc laptop as second machine.  Could I use the program  on this on my existing licence?   Would I be able to download the program? Also, what's the minimum system spec advisable for smooth running on a mac?   Hoping a helpful Adobe person can answer these questions easily.  Thanks

    Could I use the program  on this on my existing licence?
    No. And that takes care of your otehr questions - it's a moot point. Standalone permanent licenses are platform specific and there's no way around that. Only Creative Cloud allows cross-platform usage as do certain types of volume licenses, none of which is relevant to your situation.

  • Was Photoshop CS6 for Mac matchd for a new product apple 5k display ?

    Apple issued a new product iMac with Retina 5k display on 18 Oct, 2014 on market . This display has a high resolution of 5120*2880. I want to know:
    Photoshop CS6 for Mac was designed for this display ?
    Can Canon full size photo that is 5760*3840 show at this 5120*2880 screen ?  If yes, That means more detail can be seen than any monitors used before.

    From here you should be able to buy photoshop cs6:
