Photoshop freezes on launch (macOS)

Issue

Solution

Photoshop freezes when starting up in macOS Big Sur and the splash screen displays "Loading Halide Bottlenecks..."

Update to macOS Big Sur 11.2.1.

 

If Photoshop continues to freeze while starting up after updating to macOS 11.2.1, create a new administrator user account.
