Hello everybody,

I was working on some pics, when I saved them (save with name) I forgot to chose the folder. I did it again with another pic and I found out the default folder is named 20161221 204741. But I cannot find the folder anywhere on my Mac. Where are my photos now?

Thank you for helping

    In Photoshop, go to File menu > Open Recent and bring up that file.

    Cmd-click or Right-click on the Document tab and select "Reveal in Finder" to bring up a Finder window where the file is located.

      With open recent, it opens the original files, not the edited ones.

      The very strange thing, is that the folder doesnt appear when I search for it in finder...it seems it doesnt exist on my disc.

      By default edited files are saved in the same folder as the original file.  Depending on how you save the file, it might have extension .psd and this file retains all your layers which can be re-edited at a later date.

      If you hover over the file in Recent Files start-up screen, it will tell you where the file is located.
