I have similar issue where it just crashes when right clicking or pressing any of the menu bar items. No error message for me and it worked the last time I used it which was at most two weeks ago. Fedora 36, Nvidia RTX 2080, gnome and wayland.

Seems like this project has been abandoned, so unlikely we will get a fix unless someone forks this.

@Aasikki is a wine bug fixed on 7.15 same as https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53275 but is not yet on stable version
you can fixit using the developer version

For fedora:

sudo dnf config-manager --add-repo https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/fedora/36/winehq.repo
sudo dnf install winehq-devel --allowerasing

thanks, works great now
(you may need to add /opt/wine-devel/bin to $PATH to anyone having the same problem)

This alert/error is not related to this issue, but you can "fixit"(its really a hack, not a fix) adding a registry key on regedit.

In HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\CSXS.8 add the key PlayerDebugMode with the value 1
make sure you are adding it to the regedit of the prefix created for photoshop.

without this you can use photoshop normaly but you will have the old window for new document.
