Question

PC 64 bit
Windows 7
Using Photoshop CC 64 bit
working fine for months, now suddenly can't use text tool: I get "could not complete your request because something prevented the text engine from bing initalized.
What gives?
I had this same problem with Photoshop 2014 CC and had to go back to using CC one version older.
Has anyone had this problem & gotten it fixed?
Thanks

Solution 6: Delete the Photoshop font cache
Mac OS
Quit Photoshop and the Creative Cloud desktop app (if installed).
Navigate to:
Photoshop CS6 and earlier
  /Users/[user name]/Library/Caches/Adobe
Photoshop CC or CC 2014
  /Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CC or CC 2014
Note: If you're using Mac OS 10.7 or later, use this TechNote to learn how to open the hidden Library folder.
Drag the TypeSupport folder (Photoshop CS6 and earlier) or the CT Font Cache folder (Photoshop CC or CC 2014) to the trash and empty the trash.
Windows
Exit Photoshop and the Creative Cloud desktop app (if installed).
Navigate to the appropriate folder
Photoshop CS6 and earlier
Windows XP: \Documents and Settings\Local Settings\Application Data\Adobe
Windows 7: \Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Adobe
Photoshop CC and CC 2014
Windows 7 and 8: \Users\[user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC or CC 2014
Delete the TypeSupport folder (Photoshop CS6 and earlier) or the CT Font Cache folder (Photoshop CC and CC 2014), and empty the trash.
Restart Photoshop and test to determine if the problem recurs.
