To install a custom workspace, I have tried using the Export/Import Presets option which goes through the motion and says Successful Install however, it appears to put it in the wrong place on a Mac and it never shows up under Windows Workspace in Photoshop

It places it in 

/Users/USER_NAME/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop 2024/Presets/WorkSpaces

 

What is the correct workflow to get it to show up please

Hi @Kevin Stohlmeyer yes the export/import goes through the motions but the custom workspace is never shown in Photoshop. The only way to get it to show is to to manually copy the .psw file to 

/Users/USER_NAME/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop 2024 Settings/WorkSpaces
