Backup ALL custom settings prior to prefs reset?

Enthusiast ,
Jul 24, 2019 Jul 24, 2019

When corrupted PS Prefs result in interface/performance errors etc., the common effective remedy is to Reset PS Prefs. Easy enough, but there are many custom settings that will revert to default as a result of this action. Some of the settings can't be saved as a backup. Others need to be saved to specific locations manually.

Many years ago it was suggested to make a "fresh" copy of PS prefs immediately after reset (and AFTER the custom settings have been set).

But is there not a way to save ALL custom settings in a streamlined action prior to prefs reset?

This would make it far easier to reset prefs frequently, without having to manually restore all the various custom settings.

Hi FauxtoGuy,

Thanks for reaching out to us!

It seems like a great idea, could you share this as a feature request here to develop a set way of doing so? Photoshop | Photoshop Family Customer Community

Although, there are ways to migrate all your presets in Photoshop, please refer the below articles:
