Photoshop temp folder/file

Hi!

I read that photoshop save its cache in a file called "Photoshop Temp" in the Windows temp folder (Appdata/Local/Temp).

I haven't got any file in this foler despite I use a lot photoshop and I've never cleaned photoshop cache. I didn't change cache folder

Thanks a lot!

The photoshop scratch disk file (called Photoshop Temp) only appears when photoshop is running.

After quiting photoshop normally, that is using File>Exit, the scratch file is deleted from disk.

If photoshop crashes then the Photoshop Temp file is not deleted.
