computer slowing down after working in PS


i'm still working photoshop cs under windows xp (i know, i'm luddite!).

 

a few days ago worked images, including creating mulitple layers , adjustments; i'm not sure saved of final images experimenting. after closed ps, noticed computer had slowed crawl--even getting emails took several minutes, , virus scan--which takes hour--went overnight!

 

the way clear shut down , restart computer.

 

i believe there happened when working in ps tied system up. have suggestion clearing without having restart computer? perhaps clearing cache or memory, or clipboard or such thing?

 

regards, david.

what version of ps?

 

windows xp sp3?

 

ps suppose release memory when shut down.

 

look in msconfig see if ps .exe still running when shut down.

 

look in windows xp event manager see if there listed problem ps being held open program/software. is/maybe keeping ps open , not allowing close.

 

also give ole fix reset prefs reading this. keyboard or manual way. might cure weird problem.
