My photoshop was working until last night…. When i open it.. it loads all the way into "reading fonts" and then i get an error saying "Unable to continue because of a hardware or system error. Sorry but this error is unrecoverable"

And when i load image ready i get this error "Could not fully start the application because the AGM library could not be initialized"

Every other program in my computer is working perfectly including my computer.. the only problems i’m having is opening photoshop and opening image ready. Can any one help me?

Thank you.

You’ve got a very corrupt font file installed on your system.

You need to find and remove that file.

Another question… is there anything i can use to help me find the corrupt font? I have alot of fonts, and so far i spent about an hour going through and deleted the ones i didn’t want, but i haven’t found any that didn’t work.. they all seemed to work good.

thank you.

Just start it up, no need to reinstall.

Binary search (move half out, see if it goes away, etc.) would speed it up.
