Develop Menu NoNoise and Tack Sharp
Today when I opened PR 2023 offer of NoNoise and Tack Sharp at the develop menu
disappered.

This has been reported a few times now. You can try restarting the program, but I think I remember someone saying that it had to do with the GPU.

It isn't the GPU. I saw it last night on my Mac mini M1.

I had it happen on both my M1 Mac mini and my M1 MacBook Pro. It came back after a restart (2 restarts needed on Mac mini) and so far it's working properly.

I had it happen yesterday on an iMac. A restart seemed to fix it.

I had the same issue with a Lenovo Thinkpad laptop running Windows 10 Pro. In my case, the pane would never come up. I updated the Nvidia drivers, not the pane comes up.

The same thing happened to me tonight. The NoNoise and Tack Sharp were nowhere in the Develop menu. I restarted the program and it came up. My desktop has Windows 10, Threadripper 1090X, 32GB Ram, RTX3060 with 12GB, 1000W power supply. ON1 often crashes, and is slow executing any commands, it just spins and spins and then executes. Just how much more does ON1 want to make it work? This does not happen with any of my other programs, LR, Affinity, PSP, all of which I'm trying to dump in favour of ON1. Not going to happen because I can't trust it. I'm sure if I send a request they will tell me I need to buy an AMD Ryzen 7000. Yes, I'm ranting. I am getting fed up with all these problems. ON1 needs to spend time stabilizing and making what it has work instead of adding new features that don't.

Happened to me while back. Closed and restarted ON1 and no noise & tack sharp we’re back again, hasn’t happened again. 2020 Intel i7 iMac - 64Gb RAM.
Re Pierre Nantais comment poor performance. I had this a lot with a Windows box, swapped to iMac and it was fine but does current release (2023) does seem to slipped a bit, seems bit sluggish compared to 2022 version.
Yes I agree ON1 should concentrate on speed & stability, I never had these issues in the past with Photoshop (not currently using Adobe) & I do like ON1 but Adobe isn’t that much more, I am beginning to wonder…

David Price: good to know I'm not alone with these problems. ON1 definitely has its good points, such as their help desk which answers requests in a timely matter with no generic answers, meaning they actually read what I wrote. Try that with Adobe. But Adobe products mostly work and I can get my jobs done. I just want to get my work done, not correspond with the request desk.
For instance, I'm in the process of digitizing ~8,000 slides. I'm still working on the first 8 because of what we discussed above. Eight! I might have to switch back to LR despite inferior noise and sharpness tools. I won't add the ON1 suite to LR because I have them with ON1 Plus and I'd have to pay for the tools again to use them in LR.
Photography today seems to be going towards graphic design and away from what it has been for the past 150+ years. To me, this means someone sitting at their computer changing skies, the colour of a person's clothes, etc. You can spend lots of time on one file, time I don't have. I don't work with just one file, I work with dozens to thousands (used to shoot concerts for work). I did my granddaughter's graduation for her school on request, took me 3 days with ON1, it would have been an evening with LR because it doesn't crash and doesn't sit there spinning doing God-knows-what before executing.
I know ON1 is a small shop trying their best. Still, I believe they are writing sloppy code, requiring power to compensate if a user pushes the program. This way they put out great tools that more or less work and then scramble to fix them. Like you, I'm thinking of going back to LR. It's a question of the right tool for the job. Despite cheering ON1 on and talking it up to my photo buddies, maybe it's time to move on. Those slides, ~20,000 negs, current assignments, etc, are not waiting for ON1 to solve its problems.
Hopefully, you understand this second rant. The problems with NoNoise and Tack Sharp on top of all the other problems just lit my fuse.
