Solving the problem of slow Photoshop startup requires a multi-pronged approach, including: upgrading hardware (memory, solid-state drive, CPU); uninstalling outdated or incompatible plug-ins; cleaning up system garbage and excessive background programs regularly; closing irrelevant programs with caution; avoiding opening a large number of files during startup.

Photoshop starts slowly? I'm so familiar with this issue! For many early mornings, I was crying at the circle of hourglass. In fact, this is not the cause of Photoshop itself, but the fact that it and your computer have had some minor problems in the process of "flirting around". After reading this article, you can say goodbye to the pain of slow startup like me and let the PS open quickly like lightning.

First of all, we need to figure out the reason why Photoshop is slow. It is not caused by a single factor. Imagine it is like a greedy child, requiring a lot of resources to satisfy its appetite. If your computer's hardware is not working, or the system is not properly set, it will start up like a hungry wolf.

In terms of hardware, memory (RAM) is the top priority. Photoshop is a large memory consumer. If there is insufficient memory, it can only work "slowly". You can use the Task Manager to view your memory usage. If the upper limit is often approaching, adding a memory stick is a must. Solid-state drives (SSDs) are also crucial. The reading speed of mechanical hard disk (HDD) is much lower than that of SSD, which directly affects the startup speed and file loading speed. If you are still using a mechanical hard drive, change to an SSD, and you will find that the world is getting faster. CPU is also a key role, and a powerful CPU can significantly improve Photoshop's response speed.

In terms of software, the problem is even more complicated. Photoshop plug-ins (plug-ins) are one of the culprits. Some plug-ins are not of high quality or are incompatible with your system, which will slow down the startup speed. It is recommended that you uninstall some uncommon plugins or update them to the latest version. The system itself cannot be ignored. Too many background programs, too many system fragments, or system files are corrupted, which will affect the startup speed of Photoshop. Regularly cleaning up system garbage, closing unnecessary background programs, and performing system maintenance are all necessary steps.

Now, let’s talk about some practical tips.

A simple example:

 <code class="python"># 模擬清理臨時文件，當(dāng)然，實際操作需要更復(fù)雜的代碼import os import shutil temp_dir = os.path.expanduser("~\\AppData\\Local\\Temp") # Windows路徑try: for filename in os.listdir(temp_dir): filepath = os.path.join(temp_dir, filename) try: if os.path.isfile(filepath) and filename.endswith(".tmp"): #只刪除.tmp文件，避免誤刪重要文件os.remove(filepath) print(f"Deleted temporary file: {filename}") except OSError as e: print(f"Error deleting file {filename}: {e}") except FileNotFoundError: print("Temporary directory not found.") # 模擬關(guān)閉不必要的程序(需要管理員權(quán)限，并且因系統(tǒng)不同而異) # 這個例子僅供參考，實際應(yīng)用中需要謹(jǐn)慎操作# 強(qiáng)烈建議不要隨意關(guān)閉系統(tǒng)關(guān)鍵進(jìn)程！ # 以下代碼不建議直接運行，僅作示例#import psutil #for proc in psutil.process_iter(['pid', 'name']): # if "無關(guān)緊要的程序名" in proc.info['name']: # proc.kill()</code>

This code is only for demonstration. Be careful in actual operation, and do not delete important files by mistake or close critical processes in the system.

In addition to these, there is another trick, which is to try not to open a large number of files when Photoshop starts. Let it start first, and then slowly load the file, which will be much faster.

Remember, improving the startup speed of Photoshop is a system project that requires starting from hardware, software and usage habits. Don’t expect to achieve it overnight, but as long as you take it seriously, you will definitely feel the leap of speed! Don't forget that checking your system regularly and keeping it clean and efficient is the long-term solution.
