FF12 just doesn't budge. Eventually I force quite and get an error.
FF12 in the latest version of Photoshop, 24.1.0, on 2017 MacBook Pro, MacOS Ventura, 13.1.

Full error:
Could not complete the Filter Forge 12 command because of a problem with the filter module interface.

Help please!

Does FF12 work correctly for you in the standalone mode?

This means either the plugin wasn't installed correctly, or you have several conflicting plugins in multiple locations. Please do the following:

1. Open these two locations:

Applications/Adobe Photoshop 2023/Plug-Ins/Filters/
Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CC/

and remove all Filter Forge-related files from there.

2. Make sure to terminate Photoshop (not just collapse into Dock).
3. Open Terminal and type this:

cd /Applications/Filter\ Forge\ 12/
sudo ./InstallPlugins

InstallPlugins should report that "plugin installed successfully".

4. Run Photoshop and check if it helped.

A few issues:
1) There is no Applications/Adobe Photoshop 2023/Plug-Ins/Filters/ folder.
"Plug-ins" just has a "Generator" folder
Should I create a Filters folder?

2) "sudo ./InstallPlugins" yields "command not found"

No, if there are no FF files and no folder under Plug-Ins, this is fine.

I assume you have successfully removed the 'Filter Forge 12' folder from Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CC/
?

If yes, please try reinstalling the latest FF12 build from the download page.

I fully uninstalled and deleted all version of FF, downloaded a fresh new copy and installed that, and now it seems to work w/o going into the terminal.

Still not sure what happened, but it seems to work now.

Thank you!
