PS (non-cloud) opens then closes itself.

I  installed an SSD in my MacMini via clone.   Bridge functions properly but PS opens, shows an alert saying   "The last time you opened Photoshop, it unexpectedly quit while reopening windows. Do you want to try to reopen its windows again?".  Choices are Don't reopen and Reopen.  It doesn't matter which I chose, PS closes. Any ideas?

Maybe the clone didn't copy all the necessary files, since Adobe installs files all over the drive, not in a neat application package like most other mac applications are.

Best to probably do an uninstall/reinstall of photoshop. and clear the photoshop preferences/settings in ~/Library/Preferences

You can get the installers from here:

Adobe software and other downloads

Thanks. I  got home and was going to do that, but I  get an error when I try and uninstall.  ugh.

What version of photoshop and mac os are you using?

You can use the Creative Cloud Cleaner to remove photoshop and then reinstall.
