On start-up, PS CS6 Ex opens a new file menu automatically without be prompted to do so. Huh?

Whenever PS CS6 Ex is opened, a new file menu automatically opens without be prompted to do so. This happens whether I'm opening any type of file in PS or just opening PS without a file yet. Once PS is open, this does not reoccur when opening more files from then on, just at start-up only. It's not too big of a deal, just kinda weird.
PS just started doing this a short time ago so I'm guessing it's a Preference setting but can't figure which one.  

Thanks for trying but this did not help. I assume you meant for me to open PS CS6 / Window / Workspace & select a new workspace such as Photography or 3D, etc. Then re-open PS & change Preferences / General / Reset all warning dialogue. None of that changed anything.
Below is what happens when I open PS 64-bit; the New file dialog opens. This happens when open PS with a pre-selected file or just launching PS. I also have PS CS6 32-bit on my PC & this does NOT occur when it is launched.
Still need some help.

  • Black window is open in background every time I open a new file

    Hi There,
    Every time I open a new file in photoshop CS6, it forces another window in the background to open.
    Please can you tell me how to disable this, as it is very annoying and I hate working in tabs.
    Also, how do I open all new files at 100%?
    Thanks

    I do not use a Mac but I do use floating windows on a PC.  I also know that there is some way to turn off Photoshop's main windows frame on a Mac.  That frame may be what you see as the black window. Try turning off Photoshop's frame.
    To have Photoshop Open new and existing documents from Photoshop's are 100% you need to set up a open event and have ir use an Action or Script the will set view actual pixels 100% zoom.  Look a menu File>scripts>Script Events Manager.... that is where you enable events and set up their handlers.

  • No active layers and error when opening a new file

    I've been having this problem with my PS CS5 for awhile now. A little while ago I accidently pushed a shortcut, or something, though I can't remember what keys I pushed down because it was in a hurry. And since then I can't use the adjustments under Image or the filters. Everytime I try it looks like this;
    And when I try to open a new file it looks like this (and I tried to open a 100px x 100px file here):
    This is driving me insane, because I can pretty much do nothing right now. So please help!

    Boilerplate-text:
    As with all unexplainable Photoshop-problems you might try trashing the prefs (after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed) by pressing command-alt-shift on starting the program or starting from a new user-account.
    System Maintenance (repairing permissions, purging PRAM, running cron-scripts, cleaning caches, etc.) might also be beneficial, Onyx has been recommended for such tasks.

    Weeding out bad fonts never seems to be a bad idea, either. (Validate your fonts in Font Book and remove the bad ones.)

  • Everytime I open a new tab, Firefox automatically refreshes the currently open ones.

    When I attempt to open a new tab, Firefox automatically refreshes the already opened and loaded websites in other tabs.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Photoshop CC 2014.2.2 program error when I place a layer or open a new file

    I have just updated to the most recent PS CC2014 version. Twice, in fact, and the same problem persists. At some point while working on a file it will become impossible to place a new layer or open a new file. Other program functions work, but these will produce an error message: "Could not complete your request because of a program error." It's very frustrating and the only solution is to restart the program which will run fine for a while and then do it again.
    Is anyone else experiencing this? Or better still, has anyone found a solution to this issue?
    Richard

    I am experiencing a similiar problem.
    Ever since I upgraded to CC I have received this error after using Photoshop for more than 5 mins, or trying to performing tasks such as: placing a linked file, copying and pasting, dragging and dropping an image or even using "File>Open"
    I did a complete system clean install of Yosemite, and reinstalled CC completely 3 times.
    Any assistance in resolving would be greatly appreciated!

  • How can I remove items from the open a recent file menue.

    How can I remove items from the "Open a Recent File" menue. Many other applications allow the clearing of that file . Is this possible in Adobe Reader 10.1.2 ? If so how?

    See this previous topic: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3759596
    It is for Acrobat, but the registry entries are similar for Reader.

    Actually, I suspect you can't. You get various behaviors based on a combination of settings in Preferences > Interface; namely Open Documents as Tabs and Enable Floating Document Window Docking; but it doesn't seem to make much sense as far as I can tell. Throw in the additional "application frame" wildcard on a Mac, and even just exploring the effects of the settings and drawing conclusions about them gets tricky. It sounds like you've got your windows floating, whereas I suspect many if not most users have opted for the more structured and seemingly more logical tabbed/docked method, in which case they haven't encountered your issue and don't really understand it. One might ask; if your new/current document is "in front" then what difference does it make if others behind it are minimized, maximized, or something in between?

  • When I click "File" and then "New" it keeps opening a new file as a layer and not a background. RGB is selected as the mode.

    When I click "File" and then "New" it keeps opening a new file as a layer and not a background. RGB is selected as the mode.
    With new files opening as a layer and not a background I'm not able to create multiple layers and it wont let me convert the layer to the background.
    How did this happen. I used PS just yesterday and had no problems. Today my computer did mandatory updates and now this.

    Yes. You are using the Ellipse Tool's Pixel option. So it is laying down pixels as it is supposed to do without creating a layer.
    Choose the Shape option:
    Also Layer menu > New Layer creates layers and the curled paper at the bottom of your Layers palette also creates a New Layer. I hope those work.

    how to solve this problem?

    This is a known bug and has been reported many times in the forum.
    The solution, weird as it sounds, is to make a generic printer driver your default printer. If you don't have one, download it here:
