Known Issues (What 25.9.1 Doesn't Fix)

No software is perfect. Adobe is aware of the following lingering bugs in this build:

Remote Desktop (RDP) Glitches: If you use Windows Remote Desktop to access Photoshop, pressure sensitivity for Wacom tablets still breaks. You need third-party software like Parsec.
Crash on Paste from Figma: Pasting SVG code directly from Figma sometimes crashes the UI. Workaround: Paste as "Smart Object" first.
Vertical Type Tool: In Middle Eastern versions (ME edition), vertical text alignment is still slightly misaligned by 1 pixel.

6. User Experience and Performance

Feedback on the v25.x series has been largely positive regarding the AI features, though mixed regarding resource consumption. Known Issues (What 25

Speed: The removal tool is significantly faster than previous healing tools.
Generative Credits: Adobe has introduced a "Credit" system for Generative AI. Users have a monthly allowance of generative credits, after which the feature slows down or becomes unavailable depending on the subscription tier. This represents a shift in the pricing model that users must consider.
UI Responsiveness: The Contextual Task Bar has been praised, though some power users have requested the ability to disable it to save screen real estate.

Minimum Requirements

OS: Windows 10 (22H2) or macOS 11.0 (Big Sur) – Note: macOS 14.4+ is recommended for full Metal support.
RAM: 8GB (16GB recommended for AI features)
GPU: DirectX 12 or Metal-capable GPU with 4GB VRAM (required for Generative Fill)
Storage: 8GB available space (SSD recommended)

The Contextual Task Bar (Now Usable)

Initially hated for blocking the canvas, the floating bar is now contextually aware and fully dismissible. In 25.9.1, it no longer reappears randomly. It is genuinely useful when working with Generative Fill—showing prompt history with one click.

1. Executive Summary

This report provides a comprehensive overview of Adobe Photoshop 2024, specifically focusing on the stable release build version 25.9.1. As part of the 2024 Creative Cloud ecosystem, this version represents a significant iterative update focused primarily on the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) via Adobe Firefly, workflow acceleration, and the modernization of legacy tools. The release marks a pivot from purely manual editing to a "co-pilot" model where generative AI assists in complex tasks.

3.2. The Remove Tool

While removal tools have existed previously, the 2024 "Remove Tool" received a significant engine overhaul. It utilizes advanced AI algorithms to seamlessly erase unwanted objects from a background. Unlike the older Healing Brush or Content-Aware Fill, the Remove Tool allows for simple brushing over an object, and the system automatically handles the blending and background reconstruction, even in complex textures.
