任何软件都使用临时存储来处理一些重要的工作，这在RAM(RAM)不足时会派上用场。以类似的方式，Adobe Photoshop将部分硬盘用于此类工作，并将其称为暂存盘(Scratch Disk)。使用Photoshop时，如果您收到Photoshop Scratch Disks are full错误，那么这篇文章将帮助您修复它。
Could not complete the command because the scratch disks are full
什么是 Photoshop 暂存盘？
暂存盘是用作临时存储的硬盘驱动器或SSD，用于保存文档历史记录、状态以及任何无法长时间保存到RAM中或不适合内存的内容。(RAM)
暂存盘(Scratch Disk)的默认位置是安装操作系统的硬盘。这适用于Windows和 macOS。
修复 Photoshop 暂存盘(Fix Photoshop Scratch Disks)已满
如果您看到由于暂存盘已满而无法完成命令(Could not complete the command because the scratch disks are full)消息，请按照以下方法解决问题：
- 删除 Photoshop 临时文件
- 增加暂存盘空间
- 更改暂存盘位置
- 禁用 Photoshop 恢复
- 让 Photoshop 使用更多内存
确保(Make)您清楚地了解更改将如何影响工作。
1]删除Photoshop临时文件
- 打开运行提示符（Win + R）
- 键入 %temp% 并按 Enter 键
- 在文件夹中，选择所有名为Photoshop或PST的文件。
- Use Shift + Delete永久删除文件
2]增加暂存盘空间
Photoshop建议至少有 6 GB 的磁盘空间用作暂存盘。如果用作暂存盘的驱动器上没有足够的可用磁盘空间，则需要增加它。我们所有的默认最小位置在大多数情况下都不起作用。
计算一下，如果暂存盘中的可用空间为 10 GB， Photoshop(Photoshop)将考虑的可用磁盘空间为 10-6 = 4GB，这可能还不够。
您可以更改位置或删除不需要的东西以创建更多空间。
3]更改暂存盘位置
如果您的计算机上有备用硬盘驱动器或其他分区，则可以将其更改为该分区，但我们仍然建议使用SSD 而不是 HDD(SSD over HDD)和外部位置。
- 打开 Photoshop(Open Photoshop)，然后转到首选项(Preferences)。
- 选择Edit > Preferences > Scratch Disks (Win)或Photoshop > Preferences > Scratch Disks( Mac )。
- 要更改暂存盘顺序，请单击箭头按钮，然后选择一个新位置。
- 单击确定。要应用更改，请重新启动Photoshop。
4]禁用Photoshop恢复
Adobe Photoshop会在您处理文件时自动保存文件，但这会增加应用程序使用的随机存取内存量。如果释放暂存盘上的一些空间对您没有用处，您可以禁用自动恢复保存。
- 在您的 PC 上启动 Photoshop
- 单击(Click)文件File > 首选项(Preferences)，然后选择文件处理(File Handling)。
- 取消选中“自动保存恢复信息(Automatically Save Recovery Information.)”框。
5]让Photoshop使用更多内存
当RAM的数量不足以容纳所有东西时，就会使用暂存盘。如果您的计算机上有多余的RAM，您可以分配Photoshop来使用它。
- 打开 Photoshop(Open Photoshop)并转到Preferences > Performance
- 在侧面板上，选中标记为“让 Photoshop 使用”的框。(Let Photoshop Use.)
- 输入您希望Photoshop使用的RAM量。(RAM)
- 然后单击确定以应用更改。
为什么Photoshop说我的暂存盘已满？
Photoshop使用暂存盘来保存文件历史记录和其他临时文件。由于它适用于分配的磁盘空间，因此它会不断填充您正在处理的任何内容。当它已满时，您会收到错误消息。
如何在不打开Photoshop的情况下清空暂存盘？
打开 Photoshop(Open Photoshop)，然后单击菜单栏中的编辑。选择清除，然后选择全部(Select Purge and then select All)。它将清空暂存盘中占用的空间量。如果您因为这个问题而无法打开Photoshop，那么您可以按住Ctrl + Alt keys in Windows Cmd + Option键来设置新的暂存盘。
无法初始化Photoshop暂存盘已满？
暂存盘几乎用于Photoshop的所有操作，包括初始化。当它已满时，Photoshop也将无法启动。
你如何重置Photoshop？
Use CTRL+ALT+SHIFT在Windows上(Windows)使用 CTRL+ALT+SHIFT启动Photoshop，并在询问时—删除 Adobe Photoshop 设置文件(Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file)— 选择是(Yes)。您还可以转到Preferences > General，然后单击 “退出时重置首选项”(Reset Preferences On Quit )按钮。关闭 Photoshop(Close Photoshop)并重新启动它。
删除首选项文件的另一种方法是转到 Users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop [version]/Adobe Photoshop [version] Settings并删除其中的所有内容。
在 macOS 上，位置设置为Users/[user name]/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop [version] Settings。
总体而言，可以通过清除空间或为Photoshop添加额外空间或(Photoshop)RAM轻松解决错误。一旦空间可用，错误应该消失了。但是，如果您进行大量编辑，分配足够的存储空间非常重要。我希望这篇文章很容易理解，并且您能够修复Photoshop 暂存盘(Photoshop Scratch Disks)是一个完整的问题。
Fix Photoshop Scratch Disks are full issue on Windows and Mac
Any software uses temporary storage for some of the іmportant work, which comes in handy when there is not enough RAM. In similаr ways, Adobe Photoshop uses part of the hard disk for this kind of work and calls it a Scratch Disk. When using Photoshop, if you are receiving Photoshop Scratch Disks are full error then this post will help you fix it.
Could not complete the command because the scratch disks are full
What is Photoshop Scratch Disk?
A scratch disk is a hard disk drive or SSD used as temporary storage to save document history, states, and anything that cannot be saved into the RAM for a long time or doesn’t fit into the memory.
The default location of Scratch Disk is the hard drive on which the OS is installed. This applies to both Windows and macOS.
Fix Photoshop Scratch Disks are full
If you see Could not complete the command because the scratch disks are full message, follow these methods to fix the problem:
- Delete Photoshop Temporary Files
- Increase Scratch Disk space
- Change Scratch Disk Location
- Disable Photoshop Recovery
- Let Photoshop Use More RAM
Make sure you clearly understand how the changes will impact the work.
1] Delete Photoshop Temporary Files
- Open Run prompt (Win + R)
- Type %temp% and press the Enter key
- In the folder, select all files which are named Photoshop or PST.
- Use Shift + Delete to delete the files permanently
2] Increase Scratch Disk space
Photoshop recommends a minimum of 6 GB disk space to use as a scratch disk. If you don’t have enough free disk space on the drive used as a scratch disk, you need to increase it. We all the default minimum location doesn’t work out for most of the time.
To calculate, if the free space in your scratch disk is 10 GB, the available disk space Photoshop will consider is 10-6 = 4GB, and that may not be enough.
You can either change the location or remove unwanted things to create more space.
3] Change Scratch Disk Location
If you have a spare hard drive or another partition on your computer, then you can change it to that though we still recommend using an SSD over HDD and an external location.
- Open Photoshop, and go to Preferences.
- Choose Edit > Preferences > Scratch Disks (Win) or Photoshop > Preferences > Scratch Disks (Mac).
- To change the scratch disk order, click the arrow buttons and then select a new location.
- Click OK. To apply the changes, restart Photoshop.
4] Disable Photoshop Recovery
Adobe Photoshop automatically saves the files as you work on them, but this increases the amount of random access memory the application uses. You can disable auto-recovery saving if it is of no use to you to free up some space on your scratch disk.
- Launch Photoshop on your PC
- Click on File > Preferences and then choose File Handling.
- Uncheck the box that says Automatically Save Recovery Information.
5] Let Photoshop Use More RAM
Scratch Disks are used when the amount of RAM is not enough to hold everything. If you have excess RAM available on your computer, you can allocate Photoshop to use it.
- Open Photoshop and go to Preferences > Performance
- On the side panel, check for the box labeled as —Let Photoshop Use.
- Enter the amount of RAM that you want Photoshop to use.
- Then click OK to apply the changes.
Why is Photoshop saying my scratch disks are full?
Photoshop uses scratch disks to save file history and other temporary files. Since it works on allocated disk space, it keeps filling with whatever you are working on. When it gets full, you get the error message.
How do I empty my scratch disk without opening Photoshop?
Open Photoshop, and then click on Edit from the menu bar. Select Purge and then select All. It will empty the amount of space occupied in the scratch disk. If you are not able to open Photoshop because of this issue, then you can hold down Ctrl + Alt keys in Windows Cmd + Option keys in macOS to set a new scratch disk.
Could not initialize Photoshop scratch disks are full?
Scratch disks are used for almost everything by Photoshop, including initialization. When it is full, Photoshop will fail to launch as well.
How do you reset Photoshop?
Use CTRL+ALT+SHIFT on Windows to launch Photoshop, and when asked—Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings file—choose Yes. You can also go to Preferences > General and click on the Reset Preferences On Quit button. Close Photoshop and relaunch it.
Another way to delete the preferences file is by going to Users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop [version]/Adobe Photoshop [version] Settings and delete everything inside it.
On macOS the location is set to Users/[user name]/Library/Preferences/Adobe Photoshop [version] Settings.
Overall, the error can be resolved easily by clearing the space or adding extra space or RAM for Photoshop. Once the space is available, the error should be gone. However, it is important that you allocate enough storage space if you do a lot of editing. I hope the post was easy to follow, and you were able to fix Photoshop Scratch Disks are a full issue.
