Hi Ellie. Do you have allow background processing unchecked as well? You can set the size of the thumbnails and also specify a file size above which it won't build a preview. If you only need the icons and don't edit in the browser you could set the upper limit really low, that might help. It is possible to overide the File Browser to open an image before all the previews have been built for instance but its variously reluctant to do it at times. Personally I don't think its the metadata that takes the time, its the thumbnail building. I'm on a Mac but I doubt if there is much difference between the two OS's in this respect.Hello all,
I wonder if anyone can tell me how to cut my processing time.
When I open a folder in File Browser in PS CS, the program spends forever getting file metadata and thumbnails. High quality previews is unchecked. Is there any way to cut this time down, as I can do nothing while I wait for it to finish? Running PS on XP. I have cut down the amount of data required in metadata, but it seems to have made no difference to the time.
HTH. Patrick.
