If you’re selecting a folder, the entire folder’s photo contents will be imported into Photoshop.

This process can take several minutes during which Photoshop will most likely be fairly unresponsive. Photoshop may appear to glitch out during the layer assimilation; this is part of the process, so don’t close or restart Photoshop until your layers finish importing.

Open the Creative Cloud program. Click ⋮ in the upper-right corner. Click Check for App Updates Click Update All if prompted. Keep in mind that updating doesn’t always fix this problem. If your programs are both updated to the 2017 version, consider deleting and reinstalling Photoshop and Bridge, or use Photoshop’s Scripts instead.
