Hi,

I'm just going through my laptop and seeing which files I can delete to save space since I only have 256GB of storage. I work on big projects and I don't want to always have to worry about my storage not being enough. I've found some old folders in my Library/Preferences folder:

Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 Settings

Adobe Photoshop CC 2014 Paths

Adobe Photoshop CC 2015 Settings

Adobe Photoshop CC 2015 Paths

Adobe Photoshop CC 2015.5 Settings

Adobe Photoshop CC 2015.5 Paths

...continues till 2017

Is it safe to delete these files?

    Most likely. Normally when you uninstall PS, it will delete all folders unless you made some custom changes to them, so you might want to check to see what's in the folders and if there is any custom settings that you would like to keep.
