nik collection not showing in photoshop 2021

I have been using the original NIK plugins for several years, and haven't had a single issue with PS6 5 and 6, and PS Elements running under Mac OSX 10.13. Hopefully, with DxO’s recent acquisition, further versions of the software will be developed that allow its users to continue to use their plugins without needing to find workarounds such as this. Nik Collection is an excellent software despite its recent issues. The only addition I will add is that you should create a copy of the layer in Photoshop before you open in Nik, in case any further adjustments such as masking are required after the effects are applied. This workaround allows you to save the changes to the layer you were currently working on, rather than create a new layer. Photoshop will often crash when Nik Collection tries to create a new layer in the software. Open the settings option and navigate to the tab labeled “After Clicking OK.” In this tab, you will want to change the setting from “Apply the filtered effect to a separate layer” to “Apply the filtered effect to the current layer.” Save the changes and it should apply to all further uses of the Nik software. When the photo opens in Nik, you will see a settings box in the bottom left corner of the screen.

The Fixįirst, you will want to open a photo in Photoshop, and from there open the photo using your Nik software of choice.

A simple setting adjustment though will allow you to work around the problem. This leaves users with the problem of the plugins not being compatible with the updated version of Photoshop, with no hope for a fix to resolve the issue. However, DxO has no known plans to make any changes to the current version of the software until their release of the newest edition sometime next year. This was a relief for several photographers who have integrated Nik’s plugins, such as Color Efex Pro, into their post-processing workflow. After Google announced that they had no further plans for the software, they were later acquired by DxO. It has been an up and down year for Nik Collection.
