Photoshop :: Error :: Could Not Initialize Photo Shop Because The File Is Locked

Aug 21, 2008

Upon starting Photo shop CS, I get the message "Could not initialize Photo shop because the file is locked. Use the 'Properties command in Windows Explorer to unlock the file."

Which file are they referring to "unlock"? And I don't see an option in Windows Explorer that allows you to "unlock" a file.

This problem started after I improperly tried to create a new scratch disk. I can't get back into Photo shop to recreate a proper scratch disk.

Photoshop :: Photoshop LE 5 Could Not Initialize - File Locked

Apr 26, 2009

I have been using Photoshop LE 5 for several years (almost 2 years on this PC).

Now I am getting this error message when I try to open it:

Adobe Photoshop Limited Edition

Could not initialize Photoshop because

(X)the file is locked. Use the 'Properties'

command in the File Manager to unlock

the file.

[OK]

Clicking [OK] shuts down the dialog box and Photoshop window (just solid grey background).

I first noticed the problem the other day when I selected more than one photo.JPG file and right clicked to choose Photoshop. This occurred in my 'user' logon. It also happened any time I tried to open Photoshop.

I logged on as (WinXP (sp2)) 'administrator' and was able to use Photoshop.

Photoshop Elements :: 9 Does Not Open - Cannot Initialize Because Of Program Error?

Jun 6, 2012

I have Photoshop Elements 9 installed on my computer (MacBook Pro running Lion). However, I had not used it for a couple of months because I was using the CS6 beta, which finally expired. When I tried to open PSE9, the splash screen loads fine and finishes loading everything, but when it disappears I get a dialog of "Cannot open Photoshop Elements because of a program error."
 
This is while running on my main admin account. It opens normally on another admin account which I do not use often, except for some text encoding issues which were not present before.

Photoshop :: CS6 Program Error On Launch - Could Not Initialize

Apr 16, 2013

Come across an issue when starting Photoshop CS6 and a windows error prompts with:
 
"Could not initialize Photoshop because of a program error"
 
I had x1 Illustrator file open at the same time as I launched the Ps app. I had to close the .ai file and re-try opening Photoshop again. There are a lot of little glitches with CS6 that I'm encountering more & more of. Is this common? or just a local problem with my hardware?I'm running Windows XP (32bit) with the latest service pack, & all CS6 apps were downloaded via Adobe Application manager.

AutoCAD Map 3D :: INTERNAL ERROR / Cannot Initialize ASI On Program Startup

May 6, 2010

This is happening in both Map 3D 2011 and Civil 3D 2011 directly on startup and I can seem to get a straight answer as to what is causing this, or how to fix it. The automatic response was to download a fix for the language pack, but that didnt work. Standard AutoCAD 2011 works without any issues, same with ecotect.

Ive already uninstalled and re-installed both of the problem programs.

Im running Win 7 Pro 64-bit.

VideoStudio :: Error / Failed To Initialize Video Capture Plugin

May 1, 2012

After not having much luck with the last video card, I changed my video card to a device with the Philips 713x chipset

Now when I select video capture I get the following message:
failed to initialize the video capture plugin
Open driver failed
(15200:43:0)
(15023:4:2)
cannot create the video capture filter

I have just installed card (SAA7130 TV PCI card) with latest drivers excluding the software so Video Studio 12 pro is the only capture software on the machine . I also re-installed both card and Video Studio after doing a complete system restore and used CC cleaner to remove any residual data before re-installing.

I need to use video capture within the Video Studio software as I need to use the scene detection functionality.The reason I had to change the card in the first place is that video studio only allowed me to capture in AVI 320x240 and gave 'capture failed' errors with anything else.

Photoshop :: 5.1 - Could Not Initialize CS Because File Is Empty

Apr 24, 2012

I tried to start Photoshop 5.1 64bit today, and it shows the blue intro screen with the reading and loading, and then it goes to a popup error message that reads, "Could not initialize Photoshop because the file is empty." I can run the 32bit version fine, but I would prefer to use the 64bit version. I am running Windows 64bit Ultimate. I have been having issues here and there with CS5.5 on this computer. I ran CS4 fine for the last few years, but since after the upgrade, things have been acting weird. About two weeks ago, InDesign refused to work, so I did a reinstall. Then, two days later, I was having other issues, so I did another reinstall. Before that, Illustrator was having issues, so I had to copy programs files from my office computer to my home computer to make it work. I am starting to wonder if my hard drive is going out. Is there an Adobe fix for just Photoshop? I have the CS5.5 installation DVDs here. I tried copying the Photoshop.exe from my office computer to my home computer and replacing it, but it didn't work either.

Paint Shop Pro :: XI Error Messages - Application Failed To Initialize Properly

Apr 25, 2013

I just recently started having problems with my PSP Photo XI program on my laptop. The other day it would start up and run normally, but the next day when I went to run the program, it wouldn't start. My computer would freeze up and show this error message: "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000006). Click OK to terminate the applicaion."

I tried turning off my computer and running the program again, but the same thing came up. I tried to run the repair program on it, nothing. I even tried to uninstall PSP XI to no avail as I got a different error message: "Internal Error 2328 C:Program FilesCorelCorel Paint Shop Pro XICoreErrorCodesRC.dll"

I really don't know what to do, short of just completely resetting my laptop back to factory settings and starting fresh. But even then I don't know if that would fix the problem.

I wish I knew why the program decided to just stop working one day, as I haven't downloaded anything and my anti-virus is up to date.My computer is a Dell XPS M1710, and it runs Windows XP SP3.

Photoshop :: 7.0 Locked Error

Jan 12, 2008

I try to open my Photoshop 7.0 I get two error messages. I don't understand why I am getting these messages, or how to fix them. The error messages appear at startup during the initializing of the Photoshop 7.0, these messages state:

Error Message 1: Can not find workspace folder.

Error Message 2: Could not initialize Photoshop because the file is locked. Use the Properties command in Windows Explorer to unlock the file.

There is no Properties command under Windows Explorer, there is one under Photoshop 7.0, but nowhere does it say "unlock file". I have seen a similar problem for the CS2 in the FAQ section, so I tried to use that fix, but it did not work. I have uninstalled & reinstalled, cleared cache, de-fragged, and unhidden the files ...

Photoshop Elements :: Installation Consistently Fails To Initialize

Feb 24, 2013

A few months ago I successfully loaded Elements 11 onto my desktop.  As we are going on holiday decided to load also onto my laptop.  As laptop does not take discs, I decided to download as a trial and then put in serial number.  It seemed to download alright but every time I have tried to instal I get the message "Installation failed to initialize".   This has happened many times and I have tried rebooting etc. At one stage they got me to download Adobe Application Manager, but it was not explained, or identified, why.  Adobe Application Manager seems to be for more advanced Adobe products.  I have also got Adobe Download Assistant, which seems appropriate.

Photoshop :: Error / Could Not Initialize Photoshop Because Disk Is Not Available

Mar 1, 2013

Version 8.0 / I have 2 Macs, MacBook with 10.6.8 and iMac with 10.8.2.  Previously ran Version 8.0 on both for years with 10.6.8 before updating iMac to 10.8.2.  I know that version 8.0 will not run on 10.8.2, so I made a startup disk from the MacBook to run 10.6.8 and version 8.0 on the iMac.  Works fine, except that I cannot start version 8.0. 

I get the screen message:  "Could not initialize Photoshop because disk is not available. "

What can I do to run my old version of the iMac?

Photoshop :: Unable To Start CS6 - Couldn't Open Scratch File Because File Is Locked

May 19, 2012

When I first installed Adobe Photoshop CS6 I was unable to run Photoshop or Bridge CS6.  Photoshop would give me an error about "could not open a scratch file because the file is locked.  If I ran either of these programs as an administrator they would run without issue, this led me to believe that there was a permission issue somewhere.  After some digging I found out the both Bridge and Photoshop try to create a temp file (similiar to Photoshop Temp2777223910092) on the c: drive of the computer.  In my case the user that I was logged in with did not have access to write to the root of the C: drive.  Note that you run the program as the administrator and change the scratch disk location as that changes the preference for the administrator user and not the user that you are currently logged in as.
 
I first had to give the user that I was logged on with write permissions to the root of the C: drive.  Next try and run Photoshop, you will get an error another error about the scratch disk and about and invalid or missing setting file.  To correct this you need to have run Photoshop as an administrator, next you can go to Users AdminAppDataRoamingAdobeAdobe Photoshop CS6Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings and copy Adobe Photoshop CS6 Prefs and/or Adobe Photoshop X64 CS6 Prefs to Users<your logged in username>AppDataRoamingAdobeAdobe Photoshop CS6.Adobe Photoshop CS6 Settings.
