It will be interesting to see if it recovers next time theres a crash, though I hope thats not soon, even in the name of research.

Photoshop Cc 2015.5 Check How To Fix It

What can be wrong, and how to fix it so PS will start saving recovery files.

But I just tested CC 2015 opened a document made some changer an waited the autorecover time and look ant sat a Recover PSB file had been created.

Ive tested it by editing a file, leaving it open and unsaved and then letting my laptop battery run down and shut the laptop down; the file is not saved.

So, again, Im not certain as to how this answers the question Thank you.

Make sure that Automatically Save Recovery Information Every (Pull Down Time List) I have mine set to 10 Minutes.

Photoshop Cc 2015.5 Check Mac Use Finder

On Windows use Windows File Explored on a Mac use Finder to find your user ID Photoshop Version AutoRecovery folder.

I use Windows my user ID Photoshop CC 2015 AutoRecover folder is C:UsersJohn J McAsseyAppDataRoamingAdobeAdobe Photoshop CC 2015AutoRecover That folder is normally empty unless you have a modified document open in Photoshop CC 2015 longer than the selected autorecover time.

You should see the Photoshop CC 2015 has saved a PSB file in that folder.

The File name used should contain the opend document name is some part of the generated name.

When you see there is a revovert file windows open Windows Task Manager highlight Adobe Photoshop CC 2015 and click End Task to terminate Photoshop to simulate a crash or machine failure.

On a Mack use whatever you use to terminate and an Application.

Once you have terminated Photoshop abnormally with a recovery file present in your user ID Photoshop CC 2015 AutoRecover folder, when you open Photoshop it should open the recovery file.

Please do not save the document before terminating Photoshop abnormally if you do Photoshop will delete the AutoRecover PSB fot the open document has not unsaved modifications.

I am talking about Photoshop CC 2015.5 The Mac support from Adobe is just horrid with so many wrong answers or just plain missing information that can be found regarding to PC and further more there are so many more bugs on Mac than there is on PC.

Ive been struggling for weeks now, as Photoshop was crashing -more likely freezing, so the app was still open, task bar didnt say it is not responding, just simply didnt- at least once a day (because of the markee tool, I still have no answer for that btw), so I was quite desperate to find the autosave files, but they were not in the folder.

Ever. Testing, waiting, hoping, nothing.

I usually forget to save my files at the first place, so photoshop cannot autsave it, thats my fault, I know.

But it was the case with already saved files as well.) So at the end I changed the scratch disks priority, to my other disk, what does not contain Windows, (editpreferencesscratch disks, change it and restart Photoshop) and opened a file for testing.

Each installed version of Photoshop has a AutoRecover folder for each user the uses PS.

I have the same problem with CC 2015.5 not auto saving, even though I have it set to back up every 5 minutes.

Its not there. My folders and files are always set to show hidden, in case you were wondering.

This problem actually started in cc 2015, but has continued into 2015.5.

I also added an AutoRecover folder, but that dog didnt hunt either.

The first time, i went to look at the Auto-Recovery folder; empty.

No change in the settings, still have all the obvious areas checked.
