New user here, still in the Free Trial stage, day 3 or so.
When I launch Nik Presharpening or Output sharpening it crashes immediately.
I appreciate any suggestions.
Hi and welcome here.
While I’m on Windows … check out
if NOT using the → GPU makes a difference for you.
How do you start the Nik apps, as standalone or from PL? I have now tried both. No problems. What I use is in the header.
If I launch from Finder it works fine. It crashes when I launch from PhotoLab8. I’m running MacOS15.3.2. I see you’re running 15.4.1. I’ll try updating the OS.
Macintoshs have something called the “Apple Neural Engine” which is faster than the GPU. But changing it to GPU does not change the behavior, it still crashes.
Depends on the CPU:
On my M2max the 12x ANEs are significantly SLOWER than my 30x GPUs!
Ok … that should rule out a problem some have had in the past.
