Windows: Where does Fresco store local files?

My cloud storage is full so I have several files which Fresco has stored locally.

I'd like to move them to a new computer. What is the path to the files in Windows?

Hello @jimb39109335,

 

Thanks for reaching out. You may try exporting your work out as PSD (https://helpx.adobe.com/fresco/using/publish-export-share.html) and then delete the files from the app to clear up the cloud storage.

 

Feel free to reach out if you need further assistance. We'd be happy to help.

 

Thanks,

Anubhav

Adobe is not a good company, other wise they would make it easy to take our art off of your servers. You are a manipulative monster

On Windows 10 your files will automatically be saved to your system drive in a location similar to the following:

C:\Users\Yourname\AppData\Local\Packages\Adobe.Fresco_pc75e8sa7ep4e\LocalCache\Adobe\ACPLocal

This means valuable space is being taken up on your system drive because Adobe is too autocratic to allow users to choose where they want files stored (or to turn off syncing). Find some more user friendly software.

Thanks for this information!

Just to note for anyone else, the AppData folder is hidden by default, but can be easily enabled so it is shown. Web search for "View appdata folder, windows 11" has plenty of information, example: https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/how-to-access-appdata-folder/2194e37a-a36c-443d-8dc0-0b505f5bbb8e

Did you ever find this out? Definitely not an easily searchable location so quite probably one of the temp files with random names at a guess.
