Photoshop 7.0 is closing after loading all plugins. It is not giving any errors. Could anybody tell me how to fix this problem?

Douglas,

I can’t seem to find the folder "users"… <<

That is a variable – it depends upon YOUR username

\Documents and Settings\YOUR_USERNAME\Application
Data\Adobe\Photoshop\7.0\Adobe Photoshop 7.0 Settings.

….and you need to set Explorer options to View Hidden Files and Folders

When I start Adobe Photoshop ver 7.0 it loads and then disappears. When I right click mouse button over Photoshop icon, a dialog box opens and says " Cannot find workspace folder". After OK, photoshop reloads and a new dialog box appears saying " Cold not initialize Photoshop because file is locked. Go to Properties in Windows Explorer and Unlock the files". After doing that and checking for any hidden files, Photoshop still does not open.
