I have just installed Photoshop 2023 v24.1 from the PB. It works as it should work.
Manage my account (Under Help) is greyed out as it should be, I believe.

But Neural filters are also greyed out. I believe one should sign into your Adobe account, and then it will work, but I am unsure if this is the right thing to do.
(I have loaded the neural filters in the Plugin folder (C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2023\Plug-ins))
Can I sign in (Under Help) or how can I activate these filters?
 
Here are the instructions I had the ChatGPT AI bot create. Hope this helps.


To add the Neural Filters plugin to Photoshop, follow these steps:

  1. Open Photoshop and go to the "Window" menu.
  2. Select "Extensions" and then choose "Neural Filters."
  3. If the Neural Filters option is not available, it means that the plugin is not installed. To install the plugin, follow these steps:
  4. Go to the Adobe Creative Cloud website and sign in with your Adobe ID.
  5. Click on the "Apps" tab and find Photoshop in the list of available apps.
  6. Click on the "Download" button next to Photoshop to begin the installation process.
  7. Follow the prompts to install Photoshop and the Neural Filters plugin.
  8. Once the installation is complete, open Photoshop and go to the "Window" menu.
  9. Select "Extensions" and then choose "Neural Filters."
You should now see the Neural Filters plugin in the Extensions panel in Photoshop. To use the plugin, select a layer in the Layers panel and then click on the Neural Filters option in the Extensions panel. This will open a new panel with a list of available filters. Select the desired filter and adjust the settings to apply the filter to the selected layer.

Thanks for the response. This will not trigger a trial period?
 
That I don't know. I am running a pre cracked 2022 photoshop that I got from a trusted private torrent tracker and never have even tried to use any of the online functions of the app.
 
I had a look at your instructions but I have already downloaded and installed the Thumper DC cracked one.

As I said, the “Neural filters” in the dropdown was greyed out.

I signed in with the Sign in option under Help. This was easy.
My username shows next to Sign Out, but now the “Manage my account” is no longer greyed out.
I thought it was important that it should be greyed out (Doesn't it show Adobe that I'm using Photoshop?)

Neural filters are no longer greyed out and I can open the panel

I should now be able to open any neural filter as they were put in the Plug-ins folder (This I have read somewhere)

Here are all the SVM files in the Plug-in folder (The folder was empty before)

Photoshop shows I should download the neural filters, but if I click on the blue Download button, it does not want to download.

If I sign out, “Neural filters” in the drop-down under "Filters" are greyed out again.

In summary, by signing in, one has access to the neural filter panel, but Photoshop does not recognise the SVM files (I also tried and put them in the “Generator” folder) (Perhaps they should be in another folder??)
It also does not want to download the neural filters from the cloud.

I hope this is clear…and that someone can help.

I would think it does but any time I've exposed that type of cracked app to the internet the crack stops working immediately. I'd use it as long as it's working.
 
10 bucks says that there's an entry in the hosts file blocking access and as Hotrod already mentioned that many cracked programs are shut off when they call home.

I wasn't clear in my statement. What I meant was letting the app connect to the internet right after installation before the crack is applied.
 
Hi all! Are there updated instructions for this? Is this something that should work by logging in to the Adobe account, or will that trigger the software disabled prompts?
