Learn 2 Essential Ways to Reset Photoshop. In this video, we will learn how to reset Photoshop preferences in case it is not working properly, you want to reset it to default, shows up an error, you want something back but you don't know how to, or you want Photoshop to be as it was when first installed.
Both the methods have its own pros and cons. While the first method is trickier, it gives you more flexibility to have a backup of the settings and not delete all of your Workspace data, Color Settings or Keyboard shortcuts. The second method is very easy, just requires a keyboard shortcut. But, it resets everything and you have no control over what to keep and what not to. Neither you have a backup.
I hope this video helps solve your existing or possible future issues. Thank you so much for watching!

After 3 years this video has been posted, it saved my life. When I was trying to use the brush tool, no matter what color I had in the foreground color, the brush painted like a rainbow leaving a colorful trail. changing random colors. Each click of the mouse painted a different color. I did what you said and the problem has gone. Thank you so much!

I've seen several of your Photoshop tutorials. They were all first class. This one in particular was very good; it helped me restore my Photoshop. It's working well now. Thank you so much. The world needs more people like you. - take care

Some of my Crtl+ functions stopped working, simply moving the pref-file fixed it in a heartbeat ! Thanks a lot for this fix + all your other great content !

@TheFtzen 3 года назад

@Swiftey Did you make sure to close photoshop first and did you delete the right one? For example, I currently have photoshop 2021 and 2020 installed, so I could by mistake have moved the preference file from the 2020, but that would not have affected photoshop 2021. Worst case you may have to reinstall but that may delete all your settings and customizations in photoshop :/

@lettyg561 2 года назад

@Swiftey question what did you end up doing after all. It didnt work for me either now im lost

@oanaion712 3 года назад

Thank you so very much! You are a treasure. I have been struggling with an action saying that the stroke command is unavailable and the method 1 of resetting the preferences worked like a charm. Before your video I even re-installed Photoshop and all the actions but with no success. Keep up the good work!

@tomfox4913 2 года назад

I want to thank you for this VERY helpful fix. Out of nowhere my CS5 suite slowed down to glacial speed. And I am right in the middle of some Adobe projects. I even considered ditching my installed version to ope for the subscription service as I knew I couldn't continue using "my" PhotoShop as it was running. Then Shazzam! I watched this video and re-set my preferences. Thanks a bunch, my friend. This is great! Tom

Okay, I've had this problem in which my metadata (copyright) information under "File Info" would not transfer to my asset during exporting. I've had this issue for several months and could not even find help in Adobe's Photoshop Community. I watch many of your videos and when I decided to type in, "Photoshop won't add metadata to my asset" in the RU-vid search box, your video was one of the first ones to pop up. I tried your method of moving my Preferences folder (it was under different folders once I actually clicked on the Adobe folder, but I found it and moved it to my desktop). Long story, short: THIS TOTALLY WORKED!!! I can FINALLY put copyright info into my assets again, like I used to be able to do, prior to when it stopped working! THANK YOU SO MIUCH!!!! And thank you for all of your videos. I've learned a lot watching them!
