Nik 4.3.0 floating toolbar: no longer visible in Photoshop 23.1

Good evening.
After updating to version 4.3.0, the floating toolbar is no longer loaded in the Photoshop application.
I’m talking about the fact that even selecting “File → Automate → Nick Selective Tool 2…” the toolbar is not shown.

I tried to reinstall the previous version (4.2.0, which worked without problems), but even with this now the floating toolbar is no longer visible.

My config:
Phoshop v23.1 (latest)
DXO Nik Collection 4.3.0 (latest)
Windows 11 PRO 21H2 (latest - with all updates installed)

I also have a laptop with the same SW configuration and the problem does not arise, everything works regularly.

Here are the logs that I managed to recover:

Some idea?

Thanks in advance!

After two days of investigation I understood the problem. I first uninstalled Nik Collection for the umpteenth time.
Then I manually cleaned all the DXO folders from the disk, including that of the QT cache (QT is the framework with which the application is developed).
I restarted the pc and reinstalled the Nik Collection.

Now it has started working again.

Thank you!

Thank you for your feedback. :slight_smile:
(I don’t use recent PS, so …)

By now, Nik Collection got an update to 4.3.2
