Photoshop 26.7 Generative Expand scratch Disk

Hi, I have updated to 26.7 and when I try using Generative Expand it either makes Photoshop crash, gives me a black background (no results) or shows an error "scratch disk full”

Went back to 25.12.1 and everything works as it should. What am I doing wrong?

@GoodyM how large is the document you're working on and how much free space do you have for the scratch disk

@Ged_Traynor the photo document is 19MBs and 230Gbs for free space. It's just odd that on older versions, it works as expected.

Hi @GoodyM, thanks for sharing the details, Ged asked for! Could you also share the System info by going to the Help menu in Photoshop, then System info? You can copy the text and share it with us by either pasting it as a reply here or pasting it in a text file and sharing the file with us. 

It would be helpful if you could share a screenshot of the entire screen right before using Generative Expand on the latest version. 


Thanks,
Nikunj
