Photoshop Elements 2027 Presets folder

Photoshop Elements 2027 uses the same Presets folder in a User account as Photoshop Elements 2026.

This not the Presets folder in the Application folder, but the Presets folder in Users Library on a Mac located in

Macintosh HD/Users/UserName/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop Elements/Presets

 

In previous Photoshop Elements versions 2025 and older each version had it’s own Presets folder.

This could be an issue if some presets are not compatible with both PSE 2025 and 2026.

 

This is on macOS 26.7 Tahoe running on a 2022 Mac Studio.

Haven’t installed PSE 2027 on Windows yet, so can’t verify it’s the same.

    Sorry, I looked closer at your post and now see that you are referring to the User account.  In that case, it looks like there is no separate folder for PSE 2026 or 2027.

    Jeff, the Windows version uses several folders named Presets.  There is a separate main program sub-folder for Elements 2027.
