Do a search on how to speed up PS CC. You will gain quite a bit of information.
Of note, changing the OS temp location to a different drive than the OS's will disable the neural filter downloads. The solution if you go that route (temp change) is to redirect the OS temp to its own drive (usually C), download the filters then reset the OS temp to a faster drive.
Also, when using ACR, set the temp space allocate to the fasted drive you have and in its own directory.

I use the neural filters now and then...didn't know I could download 'em to reside on my 'puter; is this what you're saying? I just looked on YouTube and there's one tutorial, but using the old interface...advice?

I think it was something else but without commenting on the actual scratch disk settings changed it is hard to know what it meant exactly lol
My thinking it was temporary memory for imported file settings but without actual information about settings found or changed not too useful. Imho lol

What a difference in performance and speed of processing multiple RAW images. It only took two clicks in "Preferences/scratch disks. I had set up scratch disks before, but I was being "dumb" about uploading the RAW files. I amaze myself. At least I'm still here, alive and learning!
Be well,

Don't feel bad Mark, I make many mistakes. Keep plugging away. The information you noted is good to know. I am just getting started.
Thanks.

Will you explain to those of us who are tech-challenged, just what you did in those two clicks, please?
Sounds good to me.

In general it is effective for more than just PS... most editing programs can use a swap or scratch disk. [?]
