Making Photoshop 2025 Default External Editor

[kitjv]

Operating System

1. macOS 13 Ventura

I recently installed PS 2025. For the time being, I chose to keep PS 2024 on my Mac's hard drive. When I Control-click on an image in Lightroom Classic to send it to Photoshop, PS 2024 is the only version shown. How can I include PS 2025 as an option? Thank you so much.

You will need to install PS2025 before installing LrC. Uninstall LRC then reinstall it. It should find PS v25 . If this does not work, uninstall all three and reinstall PS v25, LrC and then PS v24.

Remedial question: If I uninstall LrC, will reinstalling it retain my catalog, settings, etc.?

Uninstalling only affects the app files not any of the user files.

You can't have two options in that menu, but if you go to Preferences - External Editors, then you should be able to change Photoshop 2024 to Photoshop 2025.
