Why do you need the temp files? If you aren't sure, try deleting or moving them to an external drive and removing it. Start Photoshop and see if they were even needed.<br />

Hi jeremyjared74,<br />
<br />
I'm trying to know how to change my Photoshop settings so Photoshop will use my J drive for these Photoshop Temp files. Do you know how I can do this? <br />
<br />
Where will the Photoshop temp files be saved exactly?

Hi,<br />
<br />
I have some large photoshop temp files in the Temp folder of my C: drive. If I change my scratchdisk settings to, say, my J: drive then will the photoshop temp files be moved to my J: drive? If so, then exactly what folder where the photoshop temp files to moved to?<br />
<br />
If this doesn't work then how do I move my photoshop temp files to my J: drive?<br />
<br />
I have Photoshop Elements 5.0.2<br />
<br />
thanks,<br />
