Preferences Folder

Participant ,
Jul 10, 2025 Jul 10, 2025

I want to migrate my PS Preferences to a new computer.  I see a lot of individual files for various settings but no single folder containing general preferences.  Does one exist and I am not reading the names correctly or do I have to copy and paste all the individual settings/preferences/etc. manually and install them individually on the new system?

@Tom Goodman the Photoshop preferences folder is located here C:\Users\Your Name\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop 2025, it's called Adobe Photoshop 2025 Settings

Although you can in theory copy the folder over to the new PC it's not really recommended.

You can migrate, presets, actions and settings, more info.
