It is supeeeerrrr URGENT since I am working on photos which the deadline is this Friday.

I was working on photoshop till the popup keep appearing whenever I tried to move the mouse so I save another working file and delete some layers that I don't need to use but this still keeps appearing when I was trying to remove the background..

I had tried everything including purge caches and it still doesn't work at all and I tried to find but most are for windows.

I'm using Mac and had upgraded to CC 2019.

I never had any problem with cc 2018.

As can you see below, I really don't know what to do when the deadline is drawing near...

the preview image in the layers incense 2 and incense 2(1) are gone but in the artboard, it is there....

Save and relaunch Photoshop. And set the memory usage lower! It has a suggested range.

As the others said, I suggest downgrading. But may I ask, how much RAM are you using?

No, never do that. This will strangle the rest of your system, and even plugins like ACR need to work outside Photoshop's address space.

Always leave 3-6 GB for other applications and processes. If Photoshop has it all, you will get excess paging to disk all over your system.

What is your scratch disk setup and how much free space? I suspect that's the root of your problem.
