Remove adobe photoshop. Removing Photoshop from your computer

Photoshop, for all its advantages, also suffers from common diseases software, such as errors, freezing, incorrect operation.

In many cases, to solve problems, it may be necessary to completely remove Photoshop from your computer before reinstallation. In addition, if you try to install more old version over a new one, you can get a lot of headaches. That is why it is recommended to perform the steps described in this lesson before doing this.

Despite its apparent simplicity, the uninstallation process may not go as smoothly as we would like. Today we will look at three special cases of removing an editor from a computer.

Method 1: CCleaner

First, let's look at the option of removing Photoshop using third party program, in whose role he will act.


After uninstalling the editor, it is strongly recommended to restart your computer, since system registry is updated only after a reboot.

Method 2: standard

Currently everything software products Adobe, except , are installed through the Creative Cloud shell, with which you can manage installed programs.

The program is launched by a shortcut that appears on the desktop after installation.

Photoshop, like most other programs installed on a computer, creates a special entry in the system registry that allows it to get into the list of the control panel applet called "Programs and Features". Older versions of Photoshop that were installed without the participation of Creative Cloud are deleted here.


We removed Photoshop, it is no longer there, the task is completed.

Method 3: non-standard

If the program is not in the list Control panels, then you will have to, as they say, “dance with a tambourine” a little, since the standard Photoshop distribution does not contain a built-in uninstaller.

Reasons why the editor did not “register” in Control panels, may be different. Perhaps you installed the program in the wrong folder where it should be located by default, or the installation was incorrect, or you (God forbid!) pirated version Photoshop. In any case, removal will have to be done manually.

  1. First of all, delete the folder with installed editor. You can determine its location by clicking on the program shortcut and going to the item "Properties".

  2. In the shortcut properties window there is a button that says "File location".

  3. After clicking, the exact folder that we need to delete will open. You need to exit it by clicking on the name previous folder in the address bar.

  4. Now you can delete the directory with Photoshop. Do it better with keys SHIFT+DELETE, bypassing Cart.

  5. To continue the removal we will do invisible folders visible. To do this we go to "Control Panel - Folder Options".

  6. On the tab "View" enable the option "Show hidden files, folders and drives".

  7. Let's go to system disk(where the folder is located "Windows"), open the folder "ProgramData".

    Here we go to the directory "Adobe" and delete subfolders "Adobe PDF" And "CameraRaw".

  8. Next we follow the path

    C:\Users\Your Account\AppData\Local\Adobe

    and delete the folder "Color".

  9. The next “client” to be deleted is the contents of the folder located at:

    From:\Users\Your Account\AppData\Roaming\Adobe

    Here we delete subfolders "Adobe PDF", "Adobe Photoshop CS6", "CameraRaw", "Color". If you use other CS6 version programs, then the folder "CS6ServiceManager" leave it in place, otherwise remove it.

  10. Now you need to clean the system registry of Photoshop “tails”. This, of course, can be done manually, but it is better to trust professionals who write specialized software.

After all the manipulations in mandatory a reboot follows.

There were two ways complete removal Photoshop from a computer. Regardless of the reasons that prompted you to do this, the information in this article will help you avoid some of the troubles associated with uninstalling the program.

Often users who work with Photoshop need to uninstall it. This may be due to the fact that the user wanted to switch to a new graphic editor or put more modern version Photoshop itself. How to remove Photoshop correctly and completely, will be written in detail in the instructions below.

First, we remove it using standard means.

Cleaning the registry

After completing the removal process, you need to clear the device registry of “tails”. The best way to do this is to use helper utility Revo Uninstaller Pro. The utility is absolutely free. It is better to download it from an official or other reliable source. Cleaning the registry on your own is highly undesirable, since careless deletion of necessary system files may lead to serious system malfunctions and you will have to complete reinstallation"operating systems". It will be much easier and safer to use a specialized utility.

  • Download and launch the auxiliary program.
  • In the window, click on the “Force uninstall” button.
  • In the next box, check the box next to the “Moderate” mode.
  • In the field with the program name, enter the phrase adobe photoshop.
  • Click on the button “ Next».
  • When the scanning is completed, in the main program window you will be able to see the registry file tree with the remains of Photoshop.
  • Click on the buttons " Select all", and then, " Delete».
  • In the pop-up window you need to click “ Yes" to confirm the deletion.
  • After this, all Photoshop files will be deleted from the registry.


Now we can say with confidence that the program has been completely removed from the device.

Question: How to completely remove photoshop cc


Hi all. Can you tell me how to completely remove photoshop?
The fact is that there was a pirated version of photoshop cc with activation. Then there was a notification and the activation failed, and there is a 30-day trial version.
I deleted it in PU and through Revo unnistaller pro.
Reinstalled didn't help.
Who knows please help!

I found an article (below) I also want to go to the Doc & Settings folder but it says access denied, no access.

After deleting the FS, delete the folders:

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Bridge!!!
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS (version number)
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Help Center
From:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Stock Photos
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Utilities
Next we delete:
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Adobe\Workflow
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Adobe\Bridge !!!
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Adobe\Updater
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Adobe\Camera RAW
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Adobe\Lens Correction
C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop\9.0 folder

Removing shortcuts:
Check c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Desktop for shortcuts to:

Adobe Bridge!!!
Adobe Help Center
Next drive C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs
Adobe Folder
Adobe Photoshop
Adobe ImageReady (if you have Photoshop CS2 or lower)
Adobe Bridge!!!
Adobe Help Center

Now we go into the registry (Start --> run --> regedit).
I recommend doing it backup copy registry before removing anything from there. You need to click on File-->Export, and before that on “Computer” under the File tab

Open HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\ and delete the keys:
Camera RAW
ALM
Bridge!!!
Adobe Gamma
Image Viewer
Save for Web 3.0
Photoshop\9.0
Vanishing Point

Now close the registry and reboot the machine...
You can try installing Photoshop again...

Question: Completely delete data from all partitions of several PCs


Good afternoon

I'm faced with a task and have no idea how to complete it. Please help.
I’ll make a reservation right away that I don’t want to cause harm to anyone, all actions are carried out in our own interests, but we don’t have a system administrator who could do something, and the task fell on a person who had never done anything like this before.

It is necessary to completely delete data from all partitions of several PCs running WinXP SP3 (including system ones), as far as possible without the possibility of recovery.
There is physical access to these computers as well as administrative access, but the task is to do this remotely.

There is also remote access to computers via Radmin and Teamviewer. But you can’t insert a bootable USB flash drive through TeamViver.
It is possible to pre-install on these PCs all the necessary software for data removal, if it exists.
Is there any possibility of carrying out such a procedure? To the point of installing some programs to run on a schedule or activating them remotely?

Thanks in advance!

Answer: Max described everything correctly.
Personally, when I started reading the topic, I immediately thought that someone wanted to make a joke.
There is no point in erasing all the data; it will come in handy later.
And the formatting speed of all PCs will be far from 10 seconds, unless they have super processors and a 32GB hard drive)))
With such success it will be easier to burn the hard one, it will also take time)

Question: How to completely remove virtual memory and swap files?


Hi all,
I’ve been looking for an answer to my question since yesterday, but I still can’t find it anywhere, or understand, I understand that it’s better not to touch the swap files and all that, because then there are a lot of problems if you turn them off, but still, for the sake of interest, I would like to understand , what does allocated memory mean in the task manager (in the performance tab and then memory) and why does this value not change if you delete or remove the swap files?
I read somewhere on the Microsoft website about this, but damn, everything is so complicated there, like what virtual memory is automatically allocated by the system, and then how to increase or delete, that is, as always, delete only through the system of additional settings and all that, where the swap files are, but why then does the virtual memory remain the same, it even grows automatically, for example... for me 8GB of RAM, usually allocated memory (whether with swap files enabled or disabled) shows
5.0GB/7.9GB that is, like RAM 7.9GB max, but if I open a lot of folders and do something else there, then it can automatically grow up to 7.8GB/9.5GB, why is it that this is dedicated memory or virtual memory , and why doesn't it match the swap files? I downloaded Aida just in case, there are two parameters: virtual memory and swap files, the swap files correspond to the parameters that I set, but the virtual memory almost corresponds to the allocated memory in the task manager, the difference is 100 MB.
Can anyone explain to me what virtual memory is, what it is for, and what the difference is with swap files?

Here I made a screenshot from Hades and the task manager. I apologize earlier for the incorrect grammar and for the screenshot from the dispatcher in Italian, but I think you can still understand everything there. And thank you all for your answers in advance.
