PHOTOSHOP AND MONTEREY SYSTEM ERROR -1703

After the last Monterey update, using Photoshop if I try to edit (by clicking twice on it) an illustrator file (or any other program) instead of opening the program, I get this error in a system window and not in photoshop:

“Cannot open the “Adobe Illustrator 2022” application.

-1703

I emphasize that illustrator is open, but the file NO, and give me the error.

Adobe said it is a known issue and are working on a resolve...

I have the same issue, when I double click a smart object that has been already pasted in psd file.

It can't be edited in Illustrator. The funny thing is that from Adobe support they have told that this is a know issue but I told

them that this happen only since yesterday and after the update to MacOS 12.3.

Please advice if you know something about.

Thank you.

So far none of the suggested fixes work for me. I have way to many projects in the works to open, save smart object as another file, when I have duplicates of same Smart Objects in one file to create apparel designs. Normally... when I edit one smart object, all the duplicates update but keep all their effect, filter, adjustsments. If I "save the smart object" as a new ".ai" file, everything else becomes a mess and file is useless. 

I also tried to re-install backwards to PS version 22.5.6 (2021) and it still is given me the same error.  So using older versions does not work.

Makes me think it may be more on MacOS update.... also the error message has a "Finder Icon" see attached.

Hoping for resolution soon... lossing days of work that is being put aside till fix. Thank you for everyone's help!! :-)

I have also tried the previous version of photoshop and illustrator too but nothing happened. I agree with you that the latest macOS would probably be the cause of the f…, error 1703, that came with no invitation and f….d our entire workflow. Hope for an early fix.

See if this answers your question:
