Nik Software with Photoshop 2020

Been having all kinds of trouble using my Nik software with Photoshop 2020. A lot of times when I go to use the Nik Color Efex software Photoshop quits all of a sudden. Have lost a lot of time with complicated edits that I have had to do over. It has gotten to the point that I save my work every time I decide to use the
plug-in. Have not seen this with other software such as Topaz. Have any of my fellow photographers have this problem? Has anyone come up with a solution, thanks, Rich M.

Do you have the original Nik or the DxO new version?

When I updated Photoshop to the new 2020 version I noticed the Nik collection wasn't installed . So I copied the file from Photoshop 2019 and pasted it into Photoshop 2020 Plugins . I am using the free version that google offered when it had it . version nikcollection-full 1.2.11 . I also still have the main installer saved in backup drive if I need it. It was just faster to copy it from 2019 to 2020. Easy for me since I do computer trouble shooting .I still have Photoshop 2018 - 2019 installed along with the new 2020 . Hope this helps

FWIW - I am running Photoshop 2020 CC, the original NIK collection and have seen no issues. I run on OS X Catalina 10.15.1 on a 32 GB iMac.

When I upgraded to Photoshop 2020, all my plugins except Photolemur3 came over on their own. Photolemur3 I had to copy myself. No issues running any plugins.

Start typing Photoshop in the Spotlight search box. Click on magnifying glass on top bar.

If the program ran it has to be there.
