cant open photoshop 7 scratch disks full

But Im still confused why I cant set it back to my main drive which has currently 103 GB free Im on an iMac, 10.15. Then I switched my scratch disk over to my external drive. I managed to purge my disks and history etc which usually would have done the trick for me. If Photoshop is installed on a bigger drive, but the scratch disk is put on a drive or partition smaller than 1TB, that will work fine. Press Command + Shift + Period again to remove the hidden files from your Photoshop folder. This left me unable to save or even open Photoshop after I quit it. Photoshop 7.0 cannot see drives bigger than 1TB, such a disk will effectively be invisible, and so Photoshop will report no scratch disk available. I have read many, many articles on this forum and elsewhere about this issue, but can't seem to resolve it. When I try to, I receive a pop-up error message (attached) that scratch disks are full. Click and drag them to your Mac Trash and then empty the Trash. HELP I recently installed the latest version of Photoshop (2021) and can no longer even open the application. The hidden files will appear as grayed-out folders.

I am not posting this as the 'solution' since its more of a workaround than a solution/fix, but thank you for at least getting it working again for me till Adobe applies a actual 'update/fix' for the issue. Search for the Photoshop folder, then press Command + Shift + Period.

How about a Update/Patch for those of us with PS7 (or those of us that can't afford to 'upgrade' to a newer version of Photoshop) m, that would allow PS7 to recognize a larger drive (say up to 4tb for example), so we can use it without this frustration, Photoshop should have been remedied of this 'known' issue, long agoīut thanks to your help i am now able to use it again, but i would hope for a real fix to be applied as this is a known and frustrating issue OK, i had to restart my PC to finish some Windows updates, and after restarting, i tried to set the Scratch Disk location, and it seemed to work this time, i reset it to E Drive, instead of C, and Photoshop opened up without the error and is usable now, the main issue i have with this is that this is a 'work around' not really a 'fix' for the error/issue I just tried what you said, and i chose the other drive that it works on ,(i went from C drive to E drive for 'First' Startup), and it gave the exact same error, but yet if i were to boot to that drive Photoshop works perfect
