DxO Updates Its Photo Editing Apps

DxO just rolled out a round of updates for three of its main apps, PhotoLab, PureRAW, and Nik Collection. Each one gets some small improvements, mostly aimed at making editing smoother and a bit more flexible. PhotoLab 9.2 sharpens its AI masking tools, PureRAW 5.5 now works more naturally with Photoshop, and Nik Collection 8.2 adds a new set of paper textures that give digital photos an analog look.

In PhotoLab 9.2, the AI masking tools are smarter about edge detail and fine textures like hair and foliage, so selections look cleaner and more natural. You can also organise masks more easily, rename them, reorder them, or keep duplicates tidy. The PhotoLibrary now has filters to quickly sort edited and unedited shots, and Windows users get an improved History panel that remembers every step across sessions.

PureRAW 5.5’s biggest change is tighter integration with Photoshop, you can now open DxO-processed files as Smart Objects and adjust settings later without redoing everything. The DeepPRIME XD3 noise reduction engine has also been extended to Fujifilm’s X-Trans sensors. Over in Nik Collection 8.2, Analog Efex gets 30 handcrafted paper textures that mimic fine art prints and old-school film stocks, with sliders for intensity, tone, and scale.
