Hi everyone,
I need to appeal to your brilliant expertise for a very frustrating issue I currently have no solution for.
My PC runs on an XP platform and my workstation configuration is as follows:
· 2 hard drives – 300GB each
· Overall memory = 2GB RAM
· Video Card 256 MB RAM
· 3 GHZ Pentium 4 Processor
· Still use Photoshop CS
I have set up a backup and restore script of my preferences that I copy back over top to recover with. It has been working really well for quite a long time, but recently (over the past week) it has just stopped functioning. Each time I close CS and re-open, most my basic prefs are gone, i.e. colour settings, memory/image cache, brushes, etc.
I’ve tried to manually copy the files and save them, but to no avail. Nothing has changed on my PC, so I see no reason for the script not to work. I have no clue as to what to do next and would really appreciate some help.
If anyone has some insight as to what might be happening and what you think the fix is, I would LOVE to hear from you. Thanks very much for any advice in advance.
BTW based on whats going on, would this be a good time to upgrade Photoshop, and if so, to which version??
Kindest Regards,
Risa
