Photoshop crashes

[Bicycle Group]

After a rocky start with Photoshop on my ryzentosh (Catalina 10.15.5) I was able to boot the program after running some widely publicized commands in terminal. Although Photoshop would then load, when I chose - for example - >select>color range, I would get an immediate crash.

I found the following commands which solved that crash problem:

sudo perl -i -pe 's|\x90\x90\x90\x90\x56\xE8\x6A\x00|\x90\x90\x90\x90\x56\xE8\x3A\x00|sg' /Applications/Adobe\ Photoshop\
sudo perl -i -pe 's|\x90\x90\x90\x90\x56\xE8\x6A\x00|\x90\x90\x90\x90\x56\xE8\x3A\x00|sg' /Applications/Adobe\ Photoshop\
sudo rm -rf /Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/CC/File Formats/Camera\ Raw.plugin ß

Yesterday I was offered an upgrade to PS under my paid subscription. Release 21.2.1. After I'd downloaded and installed the upgrade, I was back to square one - Photoshop would not load.
By running the previously referenced terminal commands, I was once again able to boot PS - however, when I ran the commands listed above, I got an error on the Raw.plugin command - and using >select>color range once again crashed the program.

I've since been implementing the following terminal command using a script:

MKL_DEBUG_CPU_TYPE=5 /Applications/Adobe\ Photoshop\ 2020/Adobe\ Photoshop\ 2020.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ Photoshop\ 2020

This corrects the crashing problem, and the program now seems to work normally - but it is not an elegant solution, and, besides, when I run the script it opens a terminal window, cluttering up my desktop.

Does anyone have any insight into this issue?
Thanks

This can be a permenant solution. Thanks to @XLNC for the instructions.

[ ! -d $HOME/Library/LaunchAgents ] && mkdir $HOME/Library/LaunchAgents
AGENT=$HOME/Library/LaunchAgents/environment.plist
sysctl -n machdep.cpu.brand_string | grep FX >/dev/null 2>&1
x=$(echo $(($? != 0 ? 5 : 4)))
cat >$AGENT <<EOF

Thank you Shaneee
I'm not sure how to follow your instructions.
Is this code to be changed in the config.plist?
Or code to be loaded in terminal?

Ok - none of that code is in the config.plist........so I assume I make the change in terminal.

So....... how do I change:
sysctl -n machdep.cpu.brand_string | grep FX >/dev/null 2>&1
to:
sysctl -n machdep.cpu.brand_string | grep Ryzen >/dev/null 2>&1
???
Do I simply enter the second option into Terminal?

Thank you

Is this a permanent solution to all Adobe problems or just Photoshop? I too have a subscription for Creative Cloud (only use Photoshop for work at the moment) but would love to be able to just update Adobe apps when they become available. I now take an ain't broke don't fix approach.

EDIT So I put the code above in an executable script (.sh) and substituted the line Shanee suggested. Ran it, rebooted and now stuff I couldn't get to work before (InDesign, Audition et cetera) works out of the box. EDIT II Photoshop wouldn't start so I ran the code suggested under point 3 at this page and now everything is back to normal, including functioning Audition, InCopy.
