[photoaaron1]

This is infuriating and I cant make it go away.  I have goggle the issue, to no avail.

How do I stop this insanly annoying message?

Whatever it is telling me I cant do, After I click it to go away, I still do the thing it says I cant do.

Thank you.

Thanks. All fixed.

I think Adobe delights in adding little [removed by moderator] like this simply to annoy [removed by moderator] its users.  
Add the save to Adobe cloud popup when you "save as". 

Get a grip, Adobe. Seriously.

 On that one, you can choose the default save location under Preferences > File Handling

So what fixed it for you?

Sorry, the suggestion posted here worked for me.

I disabled "Export clipboard" in File Handling.

OK good; not a bug so moving to discussion.

This preference has been in PS for decades FWIW and isn't Adobe delighting in annoying you. There has always been a clipboard data limit and hence this old preference.

It's still hugely annoying.
And I was obviously being fecicious about Adobe deliting in it.

Sorry, I don't understand what that means. But it sounds like you've fixed the 'issue' thanks to our assistance in how the General Preferences work. And in this case, for multiple decades.

Probably would have helped had I  not butcherd the spelling of "Fecicious" with the typing abilty of a chimp on acid.

facetious

adjective

treating serious issues with deliberately irreverent humor; flippant.
So that, I didn't literaly mean that Adobe delights in annoying its users.
Gosh, this was sure fun.

Ah, got it. Or to put it another way:
