- Learn 2 Essential Ways to Reset Photoshop. In this video, we will learn how to reset Photoshop preferences in case it is not working properly, you want to reset it to default, shows up an error, you want something back but you don't know how to, or you want Photoshop to be as it was when first installed.
Both the methods have its own pros and cons. While the first method is trickier, it gives you more flexibility to have a backup of the settings and not delete all of your Workspace data, Color Settings or Keyboard shortcuts. The second method is very easy, just requires a keyboard shortcut. But, it resets everything and you have no control over what to keep and what not to. Neither you have a backup.
I hope this video helps solve your existing or possible future issues. Thank you so much for watching!

After 3 years this video has been posted, it saved my life. When I was trying to use the brush tool, no matter what color I had in the foreground color, the brush painted like a rainbow leaving a colorful trail. changing random colors. Each click of the mouse painted a different color. I did what you said and the problem has gone. Thank you so much!
I've seen several of your Photoshop tutorials. They were all first class. This one in particular was very good; it helped me restore my Photoshop. It's working well now. Thank you so much. The world needs more people like you. - take care
This guy actually explains everything well and I understand. Finally someone who actually helps.
Thank you so very much! You are a treasure. I have been struggling with an action saying that the stroke command is unavailable and the method 1 of resetting the preferences worked like a charm. Before your video I even re-installed Photoshop and all the actions but with no success. Keep up the good work!
Some of my Crtl+ functions stopped working, simply moving the pref-file fixed it in a heartbeat ! Thanks a lot for this fix + all your other great content !
Where pls
@@KindyBlossom He shows the steps at 3:14 :)
@Swiftey Did you make sure to close photoshop first and did you delete the right one? For example, I currently have photoshop 2021 and 2020 installed, so I could by mistake have moved the preference file from the 2020, but that would not have affected photoshop 2021.
Worst case you may have to reinstall but that may delete all your settings and customizations in photoshop :/
@Swiftey question what did you end up doing after all. It didnt work for me either now im lost
youre a freaking life saver bro I swear I was soooo scared when everything turned white and wouldn't work properly
Thank you so much. My colour picker was lagging and nothing else, and the first method of resetting preferences fixed it!
Dude you're a genius. This is by far my favorite channel
My mask tool wasn't working properly, this video fixed it super fast! Thank you :)

Me too
can you give me a time stamp for the part he did that, my mask tool doesnt work also :)
Thank you, you helped me out so much! I subbed
I want to thank you for this VERY helpful fix. Out of nowhere my CS5 suite slowed down to glacial speed. And I am right in the middle of some Adobe projects. I even considered ditching my installed version to ope for the subscription service as I knew I couldn't continue using "my" PhotoShop as it was running. Then Shazzam! I watched this video and re-set my preferences. Thanks a bunch, my friend. This is great! Tom
I used to watch this channel a few years back and have to say, Unmesh has reached his niche! Amazing! Keep inspiring all of u s
Really Helpful 🙌💙✨
You solved my problem,thank you! Congrats for the 1m subs!
THANK YOU for this video!!! I was stuck with this problem since a year and was thinking of reinstalling photoshop. Thank you once again. This video was a life saver.
I use the 2nd method all the time but unlike you, save the existing Preference file on my desktop. I see that you have become much smarter in last 4 years. Keep doing the good work. You are a good inspiration, my best.
May teacher thanks a lot for helping me my success

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! You solved my problems with your excellent tutorial. You are very clear and well spoken, and your information is perfection. So glad I found you!
First option worked like a charm! thank you so much. I was losing my mind because I couldn't find my stroke and fill options in my workspace. Life saver.
thanks bro it worked. should i delete the moved preferences?
This guy is just like a real lecturer 👨🏫 his lecture is smooth 😎😎😎
My rectangular marquee tool was making rounded selections. I got depressed that I might have to uninstall my photoshop! But luckily I found this video!! Now the problem is fixed! Thanks brother🙏
you've just saved my life. from the bottom of my heart, thank you.
Thank you,every time I tried to type the letters wouldn’t show up until I clicked on another layer.
Hey, I'm having the "Authenticating..." message on the 3D Properties windows while trying to animate my Fuse character. I'm using a Photoshop CC.
Great video and very well explained, really helped us out with our current project. Thank you. Keep up the great work. Much love MICCOLI X
Fixes about everything!!!! I have been searching for the solution of Deconimate colors(It was greyed out). Just moved the file!! Fixed! 100% Works. Give this guy a medal!
The program error kept popping up every time I click on a color, which is 90% of my workflow. This worked, thank you! I am hoping that it stays like that and it's not temporary though.
when I'm using polygonal lasso tool, then I hit ctrl + or ctrl - to magnify the image,
then the lasso didn't work, I can't continue to lasso the image again.
until I hit ESC it will be close.
Thanks a bunch it worked for, really appreciate it, I used method 1.
YESSSSS! Thank you. This worked perfect!

First comment
Okay, I've had this problem in which my metadata (copyright) information under "File Info" would not transfer to my asset during exporting. I've had this issue for several months and could not even find help in Adobe's Photoshop Community. I watch many of your videos and when I decided to type in, "Photoshop won't add metadata to my asset" in the CZcams search box, your video was one of the first ones to pop up. I tried your method of moving my Preferences folder (it was under different folders once I actually clicked on the Adobe folder, but I found it and moved it to my desktop). Long story, short: THIS TOTALLY WORKED!!! I can FINALLY put copyright info into my assets again, like I used to be able to do, prior to when it stopped working! THANK YOU SO MIUCH!!!! And thank you for all of your videos. I've learned a lot watching them!
you really saved my buns. I was freaking out at how bad I messed up my preferences. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HELPING
Amazing! My problem was related to when I had to export to any format (pdf / jpg, etc.), photoshop crashed.
I did what you instructed and it worked again!
Give this man a medal
Thanks a ton, dude! Been struggling with this for a long time now. Problem solved!

Thanks for your help. It solved my problem. Now I know what to do in the future.
Pressing Ctrl + Alt + Shift right after opening Photoshop to reset all settings has solved my problem (can't open or create new files with Photoshop CC 2023). Fantastic tips. Thank you so much for your advice!
The 2nd method solved all of my problems. Thank you sir!
I did work space reset and adjusted the style from fixed to normal; and that worked. thanks.

My God, you are truly my God! Thank you, God. Your first solution already solved my problem, I was even thinking if I should reinstall Photoshop again. Lol

Thank you for dealing with the technical stuff too, these practical issues affect us as designers, we need to learn to fix stuff... Also maybe you can make a video with tips on RAM, handling large files etc? It would be really helpful especially about photoshop.
