Hi all,

I have a user, who receives the following error message when trying to create a new document in Photoshop;

"Can't write new document presets file."

Just wondering if any of you have come across this before and know how to fix it??

Thanks.

Hallo Stewart,

Use the following procedure to resolve the issue that you are getting:

  • First, you will need to call the command File and then choose New.
  • You can as well choose to use the hot key Ctrl+N on Windows or Cmd+N if you are using Macintosh. The New Document dialog box will appear.
  • You will need to set the document parameters that you wish to use, for instance you can set a document 12 x 9 cm, 300 ppi, RGB, Transparent Background, Color Profile sRGB by default.
  • After that you will press Save Preset, and then the New Document Preset dialog box will appear.

That should help you fix the issue you are getting.

Regards,

Carl
