Help: the "Uninstall" function for Photoshop 2025 AND Photoshop 2026 are not working. If I update the App leaves behind a folder of the older version (taking up alot of space!). What should I do? I do not want to loose my preference/settings etc and I am afraid this would happen if I simply trash them?

Thank you.

Well, I have the same issue as the TS, that I can't uninstall Photoshop2025, now that i have Photoshop2026, I just get sent to Creative Cloud, and the PS2025-folder retains all files.

Sorry, don't quite get this...I have the same issue. What do you mean with "reload"? Just to start it? Where is this "re-installed" funtional "uninstall"? Do I need to remove both 2025 and 2026-versions, before reinstalling 2026(27.2)?

reload was intended to mean reinstall.

SOLVED IT!

I reloaded the older versions of PS2025 and PS2026 (v26.11.1 and v.27), which re-installed a functional "uninstall" function. I then proceeded to uninstall both and finally I install the latestest version.27.1 leaving me with a single PS folder :-).
