  Is anyone else having problems with Nik disappearing in the Filters tab in PS CC 2020? I have tried reinstalling without success. The only Nik I use is Silver FX for b&w.

  I think I am the only person who doesn’t use it.

    I don’t use it either, but I tried it long time ago, when it was still Nik’s, I don’t know who owes it now…

  I should probable get back to doing them by hand rather than rely on NIK. Then it would not matter.

    I had the same problem. Open photoshop then under file click on Automate. Nik should appear there, click on Nik and it should come right……hopefully:)

      It does not appear under Automate which I use all the time for panos. Strange.

  I updated a while ago to PS 2020 and the Nik Collection appears under my filters menu no problems? (mind you I have the old free version)

    Mine is the old free version as well. I actually bought it back in the day and downloaded again when it was free. That is what I reinstalled it from, the cd I created with the install .exe.
    
    while I was typing this I had an idea. I did some looking via file explorer and did some copy and pasting and Viola! I have NIK. Stupid me!!!

  Well, John, not to rub salt into the wound, but the old free Nik works fine on Affinity Photo (updated today to V1.8). Like you, I only use Silver Efex for B&W, which quickly gives me a great starting point, which I can then adjust.
  
  Now, if I was crass, I would suggest that the time is right to switch to Affinity Photo (though I still use Lightroom 6 as my DAM). However, as I am a caring fellow, I would not do that! 😉

    I think I have to much time invested in my PS education to switch. I have solved the NIK problem with some copy and paste. Not sure why I had the problem but it is solved.
