When I use 'save for web', I am getting the following message: 'Adobe Save for Web Error - Could not write the file. An unknown error has occurred.' Despite the error message, the image has been saved, but also a tmp file with it. This used to happen occasionally, but now happens every time. I am using Photoshop Elements 14.1 on a PC.

Hi Anwesha,

Thanks for your reply.

I have a file called 'Adobe Save for Web 13.0 Prefs' on my system but not 'Adobe Save For Web 12.0 Prefs'.

Should I delete the '13.0' file?

Many thanks

James

Instead of deleting, you can just rename it to 'Adobe Save for Web 13.0 Prefs_old'

Let us know if it resolves your issue.

Thanks,
