MIGRATED TO NEW REPO

Photoshop CC 2021 on Linux!

DISCLAIMER : Please use this software only if you have an active Photoshop subscription. I'm not responsible for any illegal use of this product.

I forked this repo and adjusted the script to keep the files that are downloaded, so that they don't have to be re-downloaded every time you want to reinstall.

Also, installing vdk3d proton gave me some problems with my GPU, so I made it optional.

Requirements

• An internet connection
• wine >=6.1 (Avoid 6.20 to 6.22)
• appmenu-gtk-module
• tar
• wget
• curl
• All R/W rights on your home folder and the installer folder
• Vulkan capable GPU or APU (optional)

How to install:

NOTE: The total download size, is about 1.6GB

NOTE 2: CLONE THIS REPO TO THE FOLDER YOU WANT TO KEEP PHOTOSHOP IN, EVERYTHING TO DO WITH THE PHTOTOSHOP INSTALLATION WILL HAPPEN IN HERE

NOTE 3: THE ONLY FILE THAT WILL BE INSTALLED OUTSIDE THE CLONED FOLDER IS THE DESKTOP ENTRY: ~/.local/share/applications/photoshop.desktop

Open your terminal and:

# Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/YoungFellow-le/Linux-PhotoshopCC-v22.git
cd Linux-PhotoshopCC-v22

# To install:

bash installer.sh

# The installer will ask you if you want to install the Adobe Camera Raw Plugin (that is yes in most cases)
# If you don't want to install it the enter '0', otherwise enter '1' e.g.

"Would you like to install Adobe Camera Raw at the end?
(1 - Yes, 0 - No): 1"

# The installer will also ask you weather you want to install vdk3d proton,
# this utility allows you to use your GPU with wine.

"Would you like to install vdk3d proton?
(1 - Yes, 0 - No): 0"

# However, it can be a bit buggy. There for it's up to you weather to install it or not.
# You can always install it afterwards by running the following command in the "Linux-PhotoshopCC-v22" folder:

WINEPREFIX=$PWD/PS-Prefix/ sh Installers/allredist/setup_vkd3d_proton.sh install

# And to uninstall:

WINEPREFIX=$PWD/PS-Prefix/ sh Installers/allredist/setup_vkd3d_proton.sh uninstall


# To uninstall Photoshop:

bash uninstaller.sh

# If you want to completely remove this installer, then delete the cloned folder after running the uninstaller.

Configure Photoshop:

1- Launch Photoshop and go to: Edit -> preferences -> tools, and uncheck "Show Tooltips" (You will not be able to use any plugins otherwise).

2- ONLY IF YOU INSTALLED VKD3D PROTON: Go to: Edit -> preferences -> Camera raw... -> performance and set "Use graphic processor" to "Off"

To change the wine theme to light Windows 10:

# Navigate to the Photoshop clone folder e.g.

cd ~/Documents/Linux-PhotoshopCC-v22

# Open winecfg

WINEPREFIX=$PWD/PS-Prefix winecfg

# Now navigate to the "Desktop integration" tab and change the theme to "Light"

How to run Photoshop:

After you run the installer, open your application menu, and search for "Photoshop CC", and click on it. As simple as that!

NOTE: If you do not find the desktop entry, or if it doesn't work, then run the command that is in the launcher.sh file. This command should launch Photoshop for you, or it will at least tell you what the error is. (This command is also printed at the end of the installation)
