Save as dialogue box opens in top left corner

[thefotoman]

I have just built a new Windows 11 computer and installed PS 2025. Now the "save as" dialogue box keeps opening in the top left corner and no matter how many times I drag it to the centre, the next time I "Cntr/shift/s" it opens in the top left corner again.

This is extremely anoying and uncomfortable.

Anybody have a solution

Hi @thefotoman, 

Thank you for reaching out. Can you try resetting preferences? Before anything else, please try these steps:
Go to the location of the preference folder below and rename it to backup.

• Windows 10/11: Users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop [version]/Adobe Photoshop [version] Settings
• You can press Press the Windows key > Enter 'Run' > Enter %APPDATA%\Adobe
• Rename the Adobe Photoshop folder by adding a .old at the end. (Adobe Photoshop 2025 > Rename > Adobe Photoshop 2025. old), You can restore these preferences later if needed.(https://adobe.ly/4860qM9)
• Restart the computer.

These changes will give a fresh start to Photoshop as a fresh install. Let me know how it goes.

Nope..... still opens in top left corner.
Dragged it to the center and saved..... closed PS and reopened...... tried again and still opens top left

so eventually managed to sort it..... reset all the preferences and then manually had to redo all the preferences because each time I tried to restore the original preferences, the same issue returned
