Photshop is screwed
Adobe Photoshop CS2 Says: Corrupted
Wednesday, June 22, 2005 by KeithMacDonald | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Well, my copy of Adobe Photoshop CS2 will not start up any more, I have the full version, but I didn't want to register with Adobe.
When it gets to the point where it loads the default gradient file, it says that the file is corrupted. (I've put over 5 hours into making gradients)
The same goes for the default styles file. (again, over 30 hours of work in those styles)
Can anybody help me fix this without losing my layerstyles at least? At least tell me what file is the default styles file?
Thanks for the help, in advance.

Might want to browse:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\Presets
locally and save anything you need. [gradients/etc]

System restore might do it. A recent MS update broke some progs on my pc. System restore fixed it. It was windows media connect that did it to me.

In Photoshop 7, the default styles (found in "\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop 7\Presets\Styles" folder, are as follows:
- Buttons.asl
- Image Effects.asl
- Text Effects.asl
- Textures.asl
To identify the default files for any of the presets, just show and select the appropriate pallet > click the Pallet Options (small arrow at upper right corner of pallet) > select "Reset Styles" > click "OK' in the dialog that follows.
This will unload the saved presets, but will not delete them.
You can then go to Edit > Preset Manager > select the Preset Type > default Presets will be displayed > mouse-over icon to show file name tip.
Sorry if this was all basic to you, or does not help in CS2 version.
