If you’re trying to save a document in Photoshop and you get the error message “Could not complete your request because the scratch disks are full,” it means that you don’t have enough space on your hard drive to complete the operation.
The scratch disk is where Photoshop temporarily stores information while you’re working on a document. When you save a document, Photoshop writes the file to your hard drive.
If there isn’t enough space on the scratch disk, Photoshop can’t save the document.
There are a few things you can do to free up space on your scratch disk:
- Close any unnecessary programs.
- Save large files to a different drive.
- Empty your trash.
If you’re still getting the “scratch disks are full” error, try increasing the amount of space Photoshop can use for scratch disks.
1. Go to Edit > Preferences > Performance.
2.
Under Memory Usage, check the box next to Automatically Restart Photoshop If It Closed Unexpectedly.
3. Click OK.
