Yes, thank you Walt for your time i really appreciate it. David

Boy oh boy do i feel dumb. Thank you to all who responded and came to my aid. I feel bad that i wasted your time. Thanks again!

Thank you Dan for the reply. Just to add a little more info, 16 bit has never been a problem. This behavior did not occur until i updated to 2.5.3. I have a desktop running 2.5.2 and i can use my plugins all day and night in 16 bit. I have already tried 8bit depth and it does not work either. I would love to upgrade my desktop to 2.5.3 as well but that is out of the question based on what's happening. What is most puzzling is that uninstalling Photo and reinstalling to V2.5.2 did not fix the problem, unless to many files are left behind after an uninstall Thank you again for your input.

I have been using topaz and Anthropics plugins in Photo on my windows 11 laptop up until the recent update and now they are all greyed out. I have tried removing and re-adding the plugins. i have tried using a different folder. i have tried uninstalling and reinstalling photo back to V2.5.2. I have started and restarted the program. I have rebooted my system, nothing seems to work. The use unknown plugins box is ticked and I make sure i am editing in 16bit. Photo sees the plugins and they drop down in the menu but remain greyed out. What am i doing wrong?

Thank you for taking the time to look into it! Sincerely David

Thank you for the work around! Is there a chance that this will be fixed in the foreseeable future?

I cannot put an inside outline on a layer that a topaz plugin has been applied to. Doesn't matter if its photo, denoise or sharpen ai. Please see attached files. bug report on layer effects and topaz plugins.afphoto computer info.txt

Thank you carl123, Yes that is the mask I mean. I suppose I have not noticed this behavior until now but I was certain the mask thumbnails were visible as soon as you applied the adjustment or live filter. No worries, thanks again.

Not sure if I clicked something I wasn't supposed to but masks no longer appear with any adjustment layer or live filter layer. It just happened today 12/27/2022. I have been using v1 from the beginning and this is new to me. photo 2 v2.0.3 Edition Windows 10 Pro Version 22H2 Installed on ‎11/‎14/‎2020 OS build 19045.2364 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2212.4190.0

Hi James...The new videos are great but i have been referring to the old videos on a regular basis and would enjoy having access to them. There is a lot of good information there. Are they available anywhere?
