.psd-chunking???

[ARoel]

Hi, I'm working on a newly set up pc and have noticed that whenever I save a psd file, the file would eventually become like this after about a minute or 2. It's not happening to my older files. Just the newly saved ones. 

 

Thank you.

Next time you're saving one, can you show me a screenshot of the save window?

[ARoel]

thanks Damien. Same thing happened after about a minute.

[Damien Symonds]

PLEASE turn extensions on like a grown-up.

oh I just did. Thanks.

By the way, my pictures folder is set to sync to the NextCloud installed in my home server. I tried pausing the sync and all .psd files saved during that pause turned out fine. I tried resuming the sync, then all psd files saved after that turned out fine as well. I'm quite puzzled though how this app which does a one-way sync could corrupt my local file (then eventually to the cloud file as well). I'm afraid it could recur and damage my new files again, like the taipei 101 file I just edited. By the way, this might be a useless info but that was the first ever file I edited on this pc and synced to the homeserver.

Yeah, I figured the problem had to be coming from outside Photoshop.  No doubt the syncing is causing the problem.  Can you set it to only sync at a time when you're not actively working?

[ARoel]

yeah I can do that. Hopefully that resolves the problem. Thanks Damien. I'll revisit this thread if the problem recurs or if that permanently solved the problem,
