What should I do if PS is stuck?

Photoshop is an image processing software, which is necessary for designers to install. Sometimes win 10 system will encounter the problem of being stuck when running Photoshop, especially when working, trying to smash the computer every minute. The computer configuration is not low, and the file memory is not very large. Why is this happening? Ps Caton is undoubtedly the reason why the computer configuration is occupied. If your PS is stuck, please check the following options as soon as possible!

Setup step 1: Turn off "Click Translation"

Many people have used this function in PS, that is, when dragging pictures with a small gripper, the dazzling sliding effect is dazzling. However, coolness always comes at a price. On the one hand, it will occupy some memory space, on the other hand, it will be very difficult for computers without OpenGL hardware acceleration to run. So if your machine configuration is not high enough, turn it off.

If your computer is also highly configured, you can start it. If the configuration is not high, it is still recommended to turn it off.

Step 2: Turn off the Zoom Animation Effect.

This function is actually the same as "tap panning". Its function is to show a great zoom transition when the picture is zoomed. Of course, it will also take up some system resources. If your computer configuration is not excellent enough, booting will only make the PS more stuck.

Turn off animation scaling.

Step 3: Close "History"

This is a function added by PS CS6. To put it bluntly, PS automatically generates a history log when processing pictures (it has nothing to do with the usual history ~ it is as useful as turning it off). But to be honest, this function is of little use in practical application, especially taking up some system resources. So ... ... shut it down decisively!

Step 4: Increase the "automatic storage interval"

This function is the automatic saving function of PS, which can also avoid the problem of job loss caused by computer crash, but the short time interval will affect the performance of the computer, especially when the picture is large! So you can adjust it a little longer.

Step 5: Turn off "Allow connections to expand to the Internet".

This is an option that many people pay little attention to. The original intention is that some extensions need to read data on the Internet at runtime. However, this situation is extremely rare, and the networking operation from time to time will affect the performance of PS. On the other hand, many cases of startup errors of extensions are mostly related to this setting, and many problems have been solved by closing it!

Step 6: Adjust the Cache Size

It is divided into two sub-options: cache level and cache collage size, and it is also one of the modules that have great influence on performance. However, these two values do not need to be manually adjusted by the user, as long as they are selected according to the user's work category. For example, it is suggested to select "small document" in the UI for making children's shoes, which will make PS more suitable for opening small-sized multi-layer documents. For children's shoes of plane, photography and printing, it is recommended to choose "large document", and PS will optimize the document with large size and few layers. If both are considered, select the Default option.

Adjust the cache level and cache slice size according to the work type.

Step 7: Modify the number of "history"

This function is the number of recovery steps automatically saved in ps background. The more steps, the more you can restore to an earlier state, but the memory consumption will be greater. If your hardware memory is not high, too much history will only cause your computer to be unusually slow. In fact, this location can be set according to your own usage habits and hardware conditions. Bian Xiao is usually set to about 80 (the computer has 8GB of memory). If you encounter a particularly big change, you will use a "snapshot" to assist.

Step 8, change the temporary disk.

This is also a commonplace topic. To put it bluntly, when your system memory is not enough, PS will temporarily store the intermediate results on the hard disk to make room for other operations. Therefore, this option is best to check all other disks except drive C. If you have SSD, try to give priority to SSD.

Step 9: Adjust Memory Usage

This is very early, this option will only be used very often, that is, tell the computer how much memory to allocate to PS. However, with the rising price of hardware memory, the significance of this function is getting smaller and smaller, so that Bian Xiao himself rarely adjusts its size in recent years. There is a misunderstanding here that needs to be clarified, that is, many children's shoes think that the reserved memory should be larger, but in fact, too large PS reserved memory often leads to no available memory in the system itself. Therefore, for users with more than 4GB of memory, there is no need to make additional settings, just keep the PS default value.

Well, these settings are very important for the smooth operation of your PS. Of course, there are some other settings, so I won't go into details because of the limited space here!
