I am using photoshop cc 20.0.0. I want to select an entire set of history snapshots and delete them. I can currently only delete one snapshot at a time starting at the bottom.

I look forward to you answer.

Jim

    I'm sorry but it is not possible to delete more than one snapshot at a time.

    While you can't delete more than one step at a time you can delete steps that are above the last one if you change the panel options.

    Turn on "Allow Non Linear History"

    Note: When you return to the last step the document won't look any different. What this allows for is further editing without using up the 50 (default) steps

    Thank you for the suggestion. I need to look more closely at how each of the History options works.

    While DARs suggestion applies to History States, it does not apply to Snapshots.

    For deleting multiple snapshots, you may be able to create an Action, or perhaps someone knows of a script for that.
