photoshop-autosave-with-timer-script

Install

  • Install Bridge

  • Download the files: BackupSaver.jsx and Reminder.jsx

  • BackupSaver.jsx: Put this file where you want but after putting file somewhere you need to change path in Reminder.jsx script.

    • Open Reminder.jsx in any plain text editor (Notepat, SublimeText, VS Code) and change path in line 8

    var ptohoshopScriptFolder = "D:/Photoshop/Scripts/";

    to your new path of BackupSaver.jsx

    Example:

    var ptohoshopScriptFolder = "C:/New Folder/Test/Scripts/";

  • Reminder.jsx: Put this file in C:\Users\{Your_User_Name}\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge\Startup Scripts\Reminder PSD.jsx

    • Or check instructions for Windows link or for Mac link.
    • Next time you open Bridge he ask you, whick you want to add new script to Bridge you must say Yes.

Things you should know

  • The script has been tested in Photoshop 2022 Windows and with Bridge 2022

Possible changes?

  • Scripting functionality that enables me to get rid of the Action file. It's not super cumbersome to install, but I'd rather get rid of it.
  • Name change to something more fitting.
  • Some sort of notification system to inform user that the file has been saved.
    • Currently you need to just trust that the script saves the file.
    • If you accidentally press another key combination to save the file, you'd have no idea that the additional .psd file wasn't saved.
      • Assuming that this notification was implemented. The lack of notification would help you to realize the mistake.
