PS CS6 files are now inflated by 1.4 MB

I use PS CS6 (13.0.1) 64-bit with Windows 7.  I noticed recently that the new files created in PS are inflated by nearly 1.4 MB. For example:

I go to file > new > pixels of width 100 height 100 pixels, RGB, 8 bit, profile sRGB color

He said that the "Image size" is 29.3 KB. Click OK, and then save the file as a JPEG or TIFF file and the files size is slightly more than 1.4 MB. I checked the metadata file in Bridge, but nothing that could explain the extra 1.4 MB. I open a JPEG with XnView and saved the file with 'keep IPTC data"unchecked and the size of the file is down to 12 KB. There is no entry of IPTC data in the original file of PS review of metadata in Bridge or EXIF tool GUI.

What is interesting is if I import the same file 1.4 MB + 4.4 Lightroom and export the Full-Size, the file size decreases to 16 KB. This indicates to me that there are 1.4 MB of data being added to the "new files" created inside the PS that is not seen or used by Lightroom 4.4

I know that I can use "Save for Web" to reduce the file size by removing metadata, but I would like to identify what is the origin of the 1.4 additional MB.

I am inserting a 1.4 MB + 100 x 100 pixel JPEG file here, but not sure if the Moose metadata or file size is selected:

Test 100x100 8 Quality Baseline Optimized.jpg

OK, I had little time to investigate this part more. I created the same 100 x 100 pixel 'New file' PS the 32-bit version and the file size is 12 KB. On a hunch, I renamed the PS 64 bit the file 'Adobe Photoshop X 64 CS6 Prefs.psp' preferences, to force the PS to create a new preferences file. It seems to have fixed the problem and now creates a file size 12 KB! It seems that all the "new files" created in PS 64 bits have been added with the printer profile of Costco, which I could see by opening the JPEG file with Windows Notepad. The size of the text file has been 1.4 MB, resulting in indigestion. Why he past I have no idea, but it's fixed now.

Noel, thanks for identifying the problem and allowed me to solve the problem.

See you soon,.

Todd
