I have 178.96 GB free for scratch disk, no temp files, already reset Photoshop settings and it still doesn't let me edit the file (specifically text box, adding layers, or even open existing files). The files are supposed to be deleted automatically when you close Photoshop. Going nuts because after extensive purging and file cleaning, Photoshop still says that the scratch disks are full. These files serve two purposes: they allow Photoshop to operate without relying exclusively on RAM, and they create a de facto backup file in case the program-or your computer-crashes. So Photoshop saves a lot of your work to local "scratch" files. Photoshop is a program that works with a lot of data at once, and not all of that data can be kept in your computer's memory alone. And the worst part is that the program gives no indication of how much junk it's accumulating-you'll have to manually search for the files (or use a tool like SpaceSniffer) to discover the real impact to your storage. Bigger and more frequent projects exacerbate the problem I've seen my own Photoshop temp files eat over 50GB of space. But that doesn't even touch the space that Photoshop's temp files can eat up. Photoshop is already a huge program, with a recommended installation size of 1.6GB (not including another 6-10GB or so if you have the rest of the Creative Suite).
