Hello

I have a very weird problem and can not find a resolution anywhere.

The thing is I heard about actions but I don't have them in my Photoshop.

When I'm in photosho location folder - they are there - actions .

But when I'm opening photoshop  I don't have it , even in - window - show - it's just not there.

I've just updated my PS and still don't have it ... ;(

PLEASE HELP

The Actions panel should be listed under the Window menu. Do you see it there?

If these are your own actions or a third party's actions, you'll need to manually load them.

Load actions in the action panel's menu:

Alternative:

Copy the actions to C:\Users\Your_User_Name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2017\Presets\Actions

Then they will appear in the action panel's menu.

AppData is a hidden folder. Make it visible in Windows 7 Explorer: Organize > Folder and search options > View > Hidden files and folders > Show hidden files, folders and drives (Windows 10 Explorer: File > Folder and search options ...)
