Adobe CC acting up

This morning Adobe CC Bridge started acting up. There is no need to get
into the details, but I will mention my cure. I reset all preferences to
factory default. That helped somewhat, but I kept getting multiple
copies of Bridge and could not select only one image. I did a reboot,
and all is well. Just thought I would pass this on in case anyone else
has a similar issue.

Is Bridge a standard part of your Workflow? - Consider making more use
of Lightroom. These days I seldom go to Bridge, but it is there.
Lightroom is Bridge on steroids. -- Just saying. ;-)

Did you update Bridge at the end of July?

If you did the update, did you ever complete it?

All Preferences? Do you mean all Bridge Preferences? If so what had you
changed from the Bridge Preferences default?

Only talking about Bridge. Somehow, every so often the preference file
gets screwed up, causing Bridge to act up.

How does the preferences file get screwed up? Are you doing something
with that file?

Not that I know of. Several years ago an Adobe product manager told me
that a corrupt preference file with PS was a common occurrence.
This is the first time it has happened to me with Bridge, and it has not
happened in PS since CC. The problem was easily fixed, so I posted it in
case others have a similar issue.
