Asked By berthapearll 50 points N/A Posted on - 08/31/2012

Hi experts,

when I am trying to double click in the short cut on Photoshop icon, I get this alert message.

 

 

Problem with Shortcut

 

The drive or network connection that the shortcut “Shortcut to Photoshop.lnk” refers to is unavailable.

 

Make sure that the disk is properly inserted or the network resources is available, and then try again.

 

                                                                        OK

 

Please need a solution.

Thanks in advance.

The main reason to your problem may be the following.

1. The reference address of the shortcut mat have been replaced,

2. The other reason may be the Photoshop set up have been replaced or relocated.

3. May be the drive in which your Photoshop has been installed is locked.

4. Check for the following reasons and make sure that the shortcut is correctly referred to the installation location.

I suggest that you have to uninstall your Photoshop.

1. Click “Start” button

2. Go to control panel

3. Below the word “Programs” click uninstall a program

4. Go and find Photoshop that you have installed

5. Right click and uninstall it

I would like you to know about the compatibility issue, you are encountering this kind of error because there is a possibility that your operating system is not compatible with your Photoshop.

Search in Google: latest version of Photoshop that is compatible (to your current Operating system).

Download and install.

I hope this will help you.

Hello Bertha,

Where is the Photoshop icon that you're trying to copy? I'm guessing it should be in a USB drive or external hard disk. The problem you are getting could be because of the following reasons:

• The USB drive you are copying to could be disconnected, and therefore you will need to verify that and rectify. Or if the destination you are copying to is a USB drive or external drive that is available then you will get that error.
• The file you are copying is a shortcut, and you cannot copy or transfer shortcuts. You will need to find the original file and work with it.

Regards,

Carl
