I cannot open Ps CC at the moment as I get the error message - "Scratch Disc Full."

I have had PsCC for nearly 2 years without seeing this error message.

Any suggestions?

Free up some hard disk space.  Start by moving data files to external drives.  Uninstall all non-essential programs.  And if you're on Windows, run the Disk Cleanup and Defrag utilities.

You're welcome.   I should have also mentioned that you can add scratch disks from Preferences or by holding Alt + Ctrl while launching Photoshop.
