Solved could not load actions because an unexpected end-of-file was encountered
You open Photoshop but even the blank page (Artboard) does not appear and comes with the message “Could not import the clipboard because an unexpected end-of-file was encountered“. It’s obnoxious, but just follow these steps and the problem will be solved in no time!
STEP 1: OPEN REGISTRY EDITOR
First, exit Photoshop software first!
You type in the search bar, keyword Registry Editor (Windows 10) press Enter or press Windows + R combination , type Regedit , select OK.
Then, click on the map file below according to the following path:
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Photoshop\130.0
(in the final file it can be 120.0 / 90.0 / 130.0 /… depending on the version of Photoshop)
STEP 2: CREATE FILE DWORD (32-bit) VALUE
Right-click on the empty area on the right and select New > DWORD (32-bit) Value
Next, you rename the newly created DWORD file to OverridePhysicalMemoryMB.
STEP 3: COMPLETE THE SPACE TO ALLOW PHOTOSHOP USING
You see how much RAM your computer has (Gigabyte), then convert it to MB (Megabyte).
– If you already know how much RAM your device is, just multiply that number by 1024.
For example, your computer RAM has 4GB, converted into MB unit will be 4×1024=4096 MB
– If you don’t know how much RAM your device is, type dxdiag in the Windows search bar and press Enter; detailed machine configuration will appear; On it write the amount of RAM of the machine in MB units.
Next, you enter the amount of RAM in MB just obtained in the Value data section; Convert the unit to Decimal and then press OK.
