I cannot associate files with Adobe Photoshop CC

Since the installation of Photoshop CC, I can't associate jpg or psd Photoshop CC. I used the "open with...". "dialogue box (something I've done a million times, so I know what I'm doing), but after choosing Photoshop, it does not appear in the list of recommended programs or other and will not open the jpg or psd file in Photoshop.

FYI, I installed Photoshop CC while Photoshop CS6 was still on my computer. I then uninstalled Photoshop CS6 and that's when I noticed the problem.

Please help... it's extremely frustrating.

Thank you!!!

I THINK I FOUND THE CAUSE DEEP AND SOLUTION *.

After looking at the new HKEY_CURRENT_USER user registry and compare it to that of the original user, I found a registry value that has not changed and should have been.

I found a key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Applications\Photoshop.exe\shell\open\command

This key has been set on the path to Photoshop CS6 when it should have been set to Photoshop CC.

In other words, in my case, it has been fixed:

"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS6 (64 Bit) \Photoshop.exe" '%1 '.

When I changed the CS6 for a CC, in other words, if the whole key reads:

"C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC (64 Bit) \Photoshop.exe" '%1 '.

Everything works perfectly now.

There is no doubt this is a bug in the installer and I imagine it's going to hit anyone who updated since CS6 CC. The solution is simple if you are comfortable with editing the registry, but it should be fixed in the installation program. He is an Adobe bug, pure and simple.

If you create a new user, because there is no key for HKEY_CURRENT_USER he created correctly.

I want to thank pbody01 for pointing me in the right direction and I'm curious to see if this fix works for other people. And hey, just because... Be sure to make a backup, and especially to export the registry before go you there.
