I downloaded the PSCS2 trial version and installed it on my "second "Slave" hard drive", I didn’t want to take a chance it would interfere with my PSCS on the primary drive "C:" After installing and trying PSCS2 I went back to my C: drive to run PSCS and got a message when I opened it, the message said:

"you have PS primary scratch & windows primary paging file on the same volume which can result in reduced performance"

Can anyone help me fix this so the message doesn’t pop up each time I go to use PSCS, I have uninstalled PSCS2 and still get the message?

Thanks for your help it is appreciated.

You can install as many versions of PS on the same volume (drive)as you wish with out interference as each version as its own installation folder. Re the message, in PS go to Edit>Preferences>Plugins & Scratch Discs and tell it where you want the scratch discs to be (start up, D, whatever)
