Read, how to set up the autosave function and use autorecover files in Adobe photoshop ... Let's consider programs for recovering deleted .psd images. Adobe Photoshop is very reliable software, but like other programs, it is prone to crashes and errors that do not necessarily depend on the program itself, but more often on the user.

This happens when working with a variety of plugins or add-ons, very large images. And as a rule, unexpectedly, when the user did not save the changes made to the file. Believing in the reliability of the program, users often do not have the habit of regularly saving the file.

Activate the auto save function

User cannot prevent error or crash software, but you can prepare for it in advance. You can save the file regularly, but it's better to set up Photoshop's autosave feature.

By default, if you activate this function, the autosave time is set to every 10 minutes. But a lot of work can be done in 10 minutes and therefore it is better to set it to a minimum permissible value- 5 minutes.

Note: the program allows you to set the interval automatic save file in the range from 5 minutes to 60 minutes.

To enable and configure the specified function, open Adobe Photoshop, go to the bookmark: Editing / Installations / File handling

In the window that opens, check the boxes opposite "Keep in background" and "Automatically save recovery information" and also set the desired period of time.

If this is the case, navigate to the folder on drive: C where Photoshop saves versions of documents for automatic recovery in PSB format (this is the same PSD file that supports large files and can be opened with Photoshop).

This folder can be found in the following path:

C: \ Users \ Username\ AppData \ Roaming \ Adobe \ Adobe Photoshop CS6 (or CC) \ AutoRecover

Go into it and you will find a PSB file to automatically restore the latest autosaved version of the Adobe Photoshop file.

To do this, open Control Panel and go to the menu Explorer options.

Often when working with many images in Photoshop, the program has so many tabs for each of them that it becomes very difficult to close them all at once. In this tutorial, we'll take a look at several ways to quickly close tabs in Photoshop. Which one you use is up to you.

Images opened in Photoshop, each of which is in its own tab, looks like this:

How do you close them?

Method number 1

Just click on the cross in the corner of the image. This method will help you when you need to cover several photos, and not all at once.

Method number 2

Right-click on the top of the tab and select Close.

Method number 3

Navigate to the image you want to close and click keyboard shortcut Ctrl + W. This will close the active tab.

Method number 4

To close all tabs at once, just press the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Q. However, this method also has a drawback: the program itself will close along with the tabs. This method is very convenient if you are going to completely finish your work with Photoshop.

Method number 5

To close all images while leaving the program open, right-click any tab and select Close All. This will allow you, unlike method number 4, to close all photos without restarting the program.
