Hello, I have an Action my friend gave me with Photoshop 2024. However, the action accesses and goes to a file path for the 2024 version, so I get an error when I try to run the action because I am on Photoshop 2025. Is there a way to get it to work without having to use Photoshop 2024? I don't know if I can remake the action because it is pretty lengthy and would take a while.

If you would like to take a look at the .atn file I can send it here.

You don't have to remake the action, but you must be able to locate the step that goes wrong and have the new path at hand.
Once you got it, double click on the step, and it will let you change it.
As long as the new step works, and the change doesn't prevent the rest to work, it will work.
See my example here:
If I double click on the word "place" it will open the file explorer for me to locate the new path.
It will save my changes when done

The action uses a user-defined preset for the Channel Mixer. If this is not available, the action will fail.

but photoshop already has the preset default
I see. This is available out-of-the-box. (The first screenshot was too small. The second one shows the complete name).
