Hi my name is Ahmed Malick,

 

I've installed both Ps 2021 and Ps 2022. I want to uninstall Ps 2021. Would I do that? And is it safe? Will I lose my settings, data and preferences?

Hi

You can uninstall 2021 from the Creative Cloud app, you have the option to keep your preferences if you want, this will keep the preferences for 2021, uninstalling 2021 shouldn't effect the 2022 settings/preferences

In General to avoid it next time turn off the automatic updates so you can control it yourself and have the older apps.

I would  just delete Photoshop  2021  Program Files Installation file system tree.  There have been issues in the Past using Adobe uninstaller  That Registry key set the newer versions of Photoshop were changes and messed up the current version of Photoshop.  Keep Photoshop 2020 installed. Deleting Bridge and Photoshop 2021 will free up 4.5GB on your boot SSD.
