I’m using Photoshop 7.0.1 on Windows 2000 SP2 in a Windows 2000 network environment.

Problem: User A has a file open in Photoshop from a network location and is performing modifications to it. User B opens the same file (User A still has it open) and makes modifications to the file and saves without any conflict. User A looses their modification since their last save and inherits the modifications made by User B.

Cause: The file that User A opened did not get locked by the software/client OS/network OS as it should have to give exclusive access to the file and prevent User B from modifying it.

Solution: ???? Has anyone else had this problem? Ideas on how to fix it? Some articles on Microsoft’s support site suggest that "Opportunistic Locking" or Oplocking is not occurring and their recommended registry edits don’t have any effect.

Chad,

Adobe only support working over a network using Version Cue with PhotoshopCS. Otherwise you should copy or move the image from the network to the local HDD, work on it, save it back to the HDD and then copy/move to the network drive.
