Every time I export my photo from lightroom or photoshop to Color Efex Pro 5, it constantly crashes while Im editing and I lose all my edits, very very frustrating.
Im using up to date lightroom and photoshop.

Hi,

I’ve got the same problem. Just downloaded it today. Color Efex crashes when I edit in DxO PhotoLab 5. I tried it three time and the same thing happens.

I’m using a iMac, Catalina 10.15.7.

I’m having the same problem with Nik Color Efex Pro 5 crashing from both LR and PS. I’m running Monterey 12.6 on my iMac. I haven’t tried many features yet, but it always crashes when I use the vignette filter which I use very frequently. Thanks for any help you can give me.
