How do I delete Adobe PE 9.0 preference file?

I must apoligize for reading the answer to this somewhere on this forum, but now I can't find it.  I want to delete preference files like I used to in the older versions.  I used to locate the file within the program and just delete it.  Can anyone tell me where that file is path is?  Does holding down the shift key when starting the the program have the same effect as actually deleting the file?

You can delete the preference file by holding down the keyboard's left side Ctrl, Alt and Shift keys as you launch the program.
You can also actually delete the preference file itself -- but which file you delete and where it is depends on your operating system.

  • How do I delete Adobe Photoshop CS6 Trial from my MacMini?

    How do I delete Adobe Photoshop CS6 Trial from my Mac Mini? I was upgrading to Adobe Photoshop CS6 not extended. So now I have Adobe Photoshop CS5, CS6, and CS6 extended. My computer is running very slowly. Are all these programs large? Can I delete all but the CS6 and how do I keep the photos I've done in CS5 in CS6 if I want to delete the CS5?

    Your photos won't be affected by uninstalling anything.  Neither Photoshop nor Bridge keep, import or store any image files.  They are all wherever you installed them. (Unlike the crappy Apple iPhoto application, which hides your images from you inside the application package .)
    Two very important caveats:
    1.— Never drag any Adobe applications or their folders into the trash!  Always use the Adobe Uninstaller installed by default with each application.
    2.— The time to uninstall an older application is BEFORE installing newer versions of the application.  The reason for that is that the Adobe Uninstaller can and in all likelihood will damage later version installs.
    If you want to reclaim HD space, your best bet now is to uninstall all versions, including the most current one, then run the CSCleaner Tool, which you can search from and download for free from the Adobe downloads site, then Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility, then re-install the latest and most current versions.  Finally, Repair Permissions with Apple's Disk Utility once again.
    Remember that Photoshop 14.x, which would have been "CS7", but now will be "CC", is scheduled to be released on June 17, less than two weeks from today,

  • How do i delete adobe creative cloud

    how do i delete aDOBE CREATIVE CLOUD IT IS PLAYING HAVIC WITH MY SYSTEM

    Thanks Nitin but I don't want to delete Illustrator as it is installed as part of the Adobe Technical Communication Suite and is under that licence, not the Creative Cloud licence. The version ends with a 0 which in another thread I was told by an Adobe person confirms it is perpetual licence version, not the CC version.
    The CC installation has no installed apps under the CC licence.
    Is there any way from the Adobe end that your records can confirm I am not using any part of the CC licence I have?

  • Adobe flash player updates creates horizonal lines on my monitor. How do I delete adobe flash player?

    Adobe Flash Player updates create horizonal lines on my monitor. How do I delete Adobe Flash Player?

    if you reboot and the line is there before you login it's not flash
    but more likely an hardware issue
    people like to see patterns so they seek them out but that can at times result in
    a random hardware failure being tied to whatever the user was doing when it happened
    like "tripple clicking in mail caused a loud pop and smoking raising from my imac"
    but anyway this is how you uninstall flash

  • How do i have adobe X pro encrypt word files automatically when created.

    how do i have adobe X pro encrypt word files automatically when created

    Hi sbuckton,
    Sure, you can encrypt your document while converting it. However you will have to use your Microsoft office for that.
    Please refer to the above screenshot & follow the steps :-
    1) Open Microsoft word with your word file.
    2) Click on the 'Acrobat' tab on the top.
    3) Then choose the Create PDF option form below.
    4) A pop up window will appear asking you to save the file as PDF, however before saving the file click on the 'Restrict Editing' option.
    5) Again a pop up window will come up on your screen, you can choose for the Encryption method & password protection option in order to secure the document.
    6) Once done, Save the file.
    In case if you still experience any issue please let us know.
    Regards,
    Aadesh

    Hi SunnyMannn-
    For programs, "delete" bad. "uninstall" good. You've left
    remnants the program and it won't allow you to try again.
    You'll need to use the official Adobe Flash Player Uninstall
    tool. I don't remember the short path to it, but here's the path:
    www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer
    scroll down and you'll see the "How to uninstall..." link
    which has the tool and instructions. This should work.
    If all else fails, you could do a "System Restore" back to
    the point prior to starting this mess.
    You only need to post one thread....
