Error:---"Reading Text Global Resources... "

Problem in photoshop CS and CS2 have started to act weird. It was working fine before, but now it gets stucks at the splashing screen "Reading Text Global Resources... " every time I start photoshop.

You see, when photoshop is initializing(starting), it loads your preference file located at:

C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop\8.0\Adobe Photoshop CS Settings

the photoshop preference file is called: Adobe Photoshop CS Prefs.psp



HOW TO FIX THIS PROBLEM: Follow these steps:

1. Make sure your photoshop is not running. (or hanged) you can kill it with windows task manager by hitting control-alt-delete and select the task manager button.

2. find the file called "Adobe Photoshop CS Prefs.psp" in the following folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Adobe\Photoshop\8.0\Adobe Photoshop CS Settings\

3. Delete this file or rename it to: Adobe Photoshop CS Prefs-old.psp or whatver you want. The goal is so that photoshop doesnt use this .psp file again when it start.

4. start photoshop, now it should load completely and it will prompt you to customize your color settings. You can click Yes or No.

5. Done

Hope this helps. If you have any comments or questions, you can post them here.
