User Guide
To suppress the loading of a plug-in or folder of
plug-ins:
Add a tilde character (~) at the beginning of the
plug-in name, folder, or directory. That file (or
all files in the folder) will be ignored by the appli-
cation once it has been restarted.
To view information about installed plug-ins:
Choose Help > About Plug-In and select a plug-in
from the submenu (Windows) or choose Apple
menu > About Plug-In and select a plug-in from
the submenu (Mac OS).
Assigning scratch disks
When your system does not have enough RAM to
perform an operation, Photoshop Elements uses a
proprietary virtual memory technology, also called
scratch disks. A scratch disk is any drive or a
partition of a drive with free memory. By default,
Photoshop Elements uses the hard drive that the
operating system is installed on as its primary
scratch disk.
You can change the primary scratch disk or
designate a second, third, or fourth scratch disk, to
be used when the primary disk is full. Your
primary scratch disk should be your fastest hard
disk, and should have plenty of defragmented
space available.
The following guidelines can help you assign
scratch disks:
You can use up to four scratch disks of any size
your file system supports. Photoshop lets you
create up to 200 GB of scratch disk space using
those scratch disks.
For best performance, scratch disks should be on
a different drive than any large files you are editing.
Scratch disks should be on a different drive than
the one used for virtual memory.
Scratch disks should be on a local drive. That is,
they should not be accessed over a network.
Scratch disks should be conventional (non-
removable) media.
Raid disks/disk arrays are good choices for
dedicated scratch disk volumes.
Drives with scratch disks should be defrag-
mented regularly.
To change the scratch disk assignment:
1 Choose Edit > Preferences > Plug-Ins & Scratch
Disks.
2 Select the desired disks from the menu (you can
assign up to four scratch disks).
3 Click OK.
4 Restart Photoshop Elements for the change to
take effect.
Important: The scratch disk file that is created by
Photoshop Elements must be in contiguous hard disk
space. For this reason you should frequently optimize
your hard disk. Adobe recommends that you use a
disk tool utility, such as Windows Disk Defragmenter
or Norton Speed Disk, to defragment your hard drive
on a regular basis. See your Windows or Mac OS
documentation for information on defragmentation
utilities.
