Photoshop 25.1.1 update missing styles

I am aware of what you say but i dont think that is accurate because i never choose that option when upgrading, and also if that was the case perhaps, then wouldnt my custom patterns, shapes, gradients all be gone as well? They all are there, the only thing that went south was my styles and the layout prefernces i had to change back to my saved layout.

@umaynome To be clear, Adobe didnt delete the files. You did. When you upgrade you have a choice to remove previous versions. This sounds like you made that choice which wiped out your previous install.

A better way forward is to keep your existing on the first install of the new version to allow for proper migration, both automatic and anything you need to add manually.

i didnt have to back up my gradients, shapes, patterns, brushes ....they all came over to PS 25.....clearly PS dropped the ball here for me atleast, and they deleted all my 2023 files so there is no loading of 2023 PS to get my styles.... I will have to pull out the usb stick of 10 months old.....thanks adobe

@umaynome its because you as the user need to save them out to create the file. If you make them in PS and never save - they are temp in that instance of PS only and can't transfer. Go back to your older verison and save them out first.

No but i do have a copy that dates back about 10 months ago or so and with all the PS updates this year and even last year i have never had an issue of missing items. I have searched my system for .asl and i dont see any file that can be what i had it appears as they are small in KB size for the most part.....UGH

I can grab the old .ASL but come on PS...this is not good.

Did you save them prior to updating?
