If you saved your patterns, they would be stored here:

Mac:

Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop [version]/Presets/[feature name]

PC:

Users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop [version]/Presets/[feature name]

Set your Explorer to show Hidden files.

I searched my entire computer, including the path you gave, and the patterns I made have all been deleted. Why would Adobe make a feature that keeps wiping out our patterns? Is this a new thing, that I have to save my patterns every time I make a new pattern and close Photoshop? I lost hundreds of hours of work on patterns. It would have been nice if Photoshop had warned everyone that all of their hard work would be for nothing.

Hi MMARIEDEN, The only way I could resolve this is to call Adobe Support and they had to share screen and walk me through the process. Like you I thought I had lost hundreds of hours, but Adobe Support resolved it. Hope they can help you.
