I don’t think you’re answering the question? Not that I can either, but I interpret the responder’s question to be why does the DNG converter seem to have no problem converting CR2/CR3 when other editing software takes a while to support it. My suspicion is that revising a limited function, dynamic program like the converter is a lot easier than the full blown deal.
A DNG converter is not an issue related to this thread. The OP is about files put out by a camera body. Some cameras do output to DNG and those files require updated programs. A DNG converter (or a RAW converter that outputs to CR2 or CR3 or NEF or any other format) are obviously outputting to a format that will be readable since that is the point of the converter. No one is going to design a converter to only output in the most recent iteration of a format. It outputs to the most common version to guarantee compatibility.

get a copy of Fastone Image Viewer - works a treat for CR2, CR3, and shedloads of other raw formats, and can save in JPG or DNG, in batch or individually. Windows or Win emulation on Macos.
Dunno why it is free - its one of the best, fast, general purpose editors around IMO. I probably use it more that LR and PS

Downloading Canon's DPP software assures compatibility with EOS related file types, in addition to 3rd party converters.
Last I checked they still didn’t have DPP available for an iPad. Would hope they change soon. I too want to get a 90D soon but am concerned that my iPad Affinity will not process the 90D Properly. It took Affinity several months before it would properly process my 77D correctly. Had many suggestions for DPP but alas it was not available for my iPad. Due to some eye issues the iPad is all I can use.

CR3 are not that new and if you are running the latest CC check to see if you have taken all the updates. what level of PS CC are you at?
CR3 files are not new but the 90D is new. It should take at least a few weeks before Adobe supports raw files from that camera.

If the OP has a photoshop workflow, one would want to make sure it was going to work without altering ones method, before buying the camera, no? Adobe says it should work, others have said it works for them, so something is amiss.
CR3 will be supported.
Basing a purchase on your premise does not make sense as all manufacturers have changed their RAW formats as they come out with new models. We would all still be using the first digitals if that were the case.

As you see in the earlier posts, it is already supported by Photoshop and lightroom, which is why the OP's problem of it not working in their Photoshop is a mystery. It makes sense that the OP might want to solve it before buying the camera.

It is not a mystery at all. Yes, Cr3 is supported by Adobe, but not for the 90D, which is too new. It's not just about the format. All raw processors have to add support for new cameras to their software as they become available. This generally takes a few weeks to a couple of months depending on the software publisher. Most long time raw shooters are well aware of this.
It is also a problem for those raw shooters who have no intention of paying to upgrade older software which no longer receives new camera updates. The only solution in that case is to use Adobe's DNG convertor, use some other software to convert their raw files to Tiff's, or shoot jpeg.

But the camera and format are both supported https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html

The 90D is supported in Camera Raw 11.4 and Lightroom 8.4. It just does not seem to be working for the OP who says they are up to date.

Yes, thanks. I realized a day or two ago that support for that camera had been added.
