Hey guys,

So i updated photoshop today and now i cant create new files.

As that isnt bad enough, just creating a 1920x1980 file takes up over 100gb disc space and putting a photo in it nd sizing it takes up all of my 400gb space on my disc, wtf is this.

Please Help me...

When I Change my disc from C to D i can create files, but not otherwise

Oh and the temp files is whata are takaing all my space and they are created just by sizing a image and there are like 10+ files with 16gb each in like 30 sec.

Hi

You maybe selecting something other than pixels, when creating new files

Can you post an image of the temp files with date created, too? Doesn't sound right...

And there it is. The temp files aren't insane at all - but your file size is!

 

1920 x 1080 pixels, not centimeters, is what you want.
