Photoshop Elements Installer Wont Open

Hey all,
I just downloaded the adobe photoshop elements trial. After it had finished downloading i double clicked the only file that downloaded to run it and it would not. In the properties window it says it is a "File" and nothing else. Also in the description it says "Adobe Extractor" but it wont run. When i try to it just asks me what program do i want to use to open it.
Help would be appreciated,
Thanks
PS: I have attached a screenshot of the properties window.

Nevermind it turned out to be a simple fix, i just added ".exe" to the end of the file name.

  • Photoshop elements 12 wont open

    pse wont open it says I dont have internet?

    I have the same problem with the full version (12.0) and installation yesterday (and today!!!). Downloaded the installationfiles with Akamai Download Manager. After installation, the shortcut wasn't linked to any executionfile in the installationfolder (e.g. Photoshop Elements 12.0.exe), so i get a warning to look for the exe-file by browsing my computer. Reboot computer and try to re-install by clicking the "setup" redirected me to "uninstall". While uninstalling i get the message " specified path is empty" and the program refers to the online adobe troubleshooter. I tried all the given possibilities mentioned there, deleting temp files, installing as administrator, adding Adobe Support Advisor .. even a "clean windows startup" didn't work.
    The only way to let my setupprogram work again (no uninstall-screen this time), was to go into the register and delete all the keys and values from PSE 12 (which I wouldn't recommend for anone who doesn't have a clue of what their doing). To be on the safe side, I decided to install the "trial"-version. Downloaded the file from the Adobe website and believe it or not, this time giving me a fault message about "Shared Technologies"
    Next try was to install the trial version of PSE 12. the idea was to install that first and activate it afterwards with the serial number given when i bought PSE 12. This time i get a fault-message about "Shared Technologies" and the installation was reversed ... otherwise said "NO GO" and no files installed.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 wont open

    Ive intalled the Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 but when i go to open the program it says it cant find the shortcut. How do i open up the program now?

    It depends greatly on which operating system you have installed on your computer.  Are you using Windows or Mac OS?  Also what version of the operating system do you have installed?  Finally if you are using Windows do you have a 32-bit or 64-bit version installed?

  • Photoshop elements 10 wont open

    I have uninstalled and reinstalled the program.  I can't get it to run or open or anything.  Sometimes there is a quick flash but usually it will not do anything

    Hi,
    Please try couple of probable solutions as mentioned below:
    Solution 1:
    1. Close Elements.
    2. Launch the Photoshop Elements Welcome Screen and hold down ctrl + alt + shift as you click Editor.
    3. Continue to hold the keys until you see a message box asking if you want to delete Photoshop Elements settings file; click Yes. Elements will open with default preferences.
    Solution 2: In case any network printer is attached try to launch without network or printer uninstall or make different printer as default.
    Solution 3: Try launching with anti-virus off or removing PSE from conflicting list.
    Solution 4: On the drive on which you have installed PSE,on my machine it is on C:
    Go  to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements  10\Locales\<locale>\Plug-Ins\Import-Exportand you will find twain  plug-in. Remove that plug-in from that location and copy it somewhere  else.
    Now launch PSE and check if it works. For related post for Twain please see this:http://forums.adobe.com/message/2954743#2954743
    Solution 5: If installed any third-party plugin remove it and try launching
    Solution 6: Launch from exe directly with admin account. Navigate to this file c:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe - right click and select run as administrator.
    Thanks,
    Garry

  • My Photoshop Elements 11 wont open.

    I tried to open it, but no matter how many times I try, it just wont open. It acts like I never input the command to open in the first place. Every once in a while, about 30 or so minutes after the attempt at opening it, I'll receive an error report that says the program is not responding. I've tried multiple times to uninstall and then re install, and it still doesn't work. Any suggestions?

    Yes. Or try downloading from this link and validate with your 24 digit serial number - click here for PSE downloads

  • Photoshop elements 3 wont open

    i downloaded elements 3 from a software bundle i recieved with an intuose 3 drawpad and when i go to open it it says i have missing or invalid personalization information. how can i fix this?

    What I found from search was that PSE 3 was made during the times of this MAc system config: PowerPC® G3, G4 or G5 processor or  Mac OS X 10.2.8 or 10.3
    10.6 is pretty new and PSE 3 is too old to be supported on the same due to so many changes gone in OS as well as application programs.
    I would recommend try the trial of new PSE 9 and if you like it then buy or upgrade accordingly.

  • Elements 13 wont open raw files from Nikon d750

    Elements 13 wont open raw files from Nikon d750 camera, wont update either from the help menu, any ideas what to do.

    carper
    According to Adobe document, you require installation of at least Camera Raw 8.7 for your Nikon 750 for your Photoshop Elements 13 and Premiere Elements 13.
    https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html
    And, I believe based on the following that Photoshop Elements 13 Premiere Elements 13 ships with Camera Raw 8.6.
    https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
    Consequently, the solution appears to revolve around getting the Help Menu/Updates to work since there is no manual install of Camera Raw 8.7 for 13.
    Until the Premiere Elements update problem is resolved, you may have to resort to using the Nikon software. There is also the DNG 8.7 Converter
    which you can download from Adobe link, not requiring the Help Menu/Update as does Camera Raw 8.7.
    Adobe - Adobe Camera Raw and DNG Converter : For Windows : Adobe DNG Converter 8.7
    There have been several reports of Help Menu/Update failures. I have not seen a generalized solution. I can only offer the
    the typical "Does the problem exist with and without the antivirus and firewall(s) disabled?"

  • Premier elements 12 wont open

    my premier elements 12 wont open at all and the photoshop 12 opens but the screen freezes straight away, was halfway through a video project but have been having difficulties from the beginning- the screen freezing when adding text and the playback and audio stuttering. Help!

    Lindaos
    Just some supplemental comments....all information is important in troubleshooting.
    I do not know if I am ready to suggest deleting the BadDrivers.txt file at this point. If and when we get to that point, the BadDrivers.txt
    file for Premiere Elements 12 Windows 7 or 8 64 bit can be found in the path:
    Local Disc C
    Program Data
    Premiere Elements
    Adobe
    Premiere Elements
    and in the Premiere Elements Folder is the BadDrivers.txt file that you delete.
    Note: The version 12 BadDrivers.txt file exists in the Premiere Elements 12 Folder along with Folders for other versions as well as 12.
    For prior versions of Premiere Elements, this BadDrivers.txt file would be in the folder of its version.
    Also, in order to see the above path, you need to be working with Folder Option Show Hidden Files, Folders, and Drives active.
    We look forward to more details of your issue so that we can rule in or out factors involved in your problems. Although video card driver considerations are important to the details package, there are a lot of other possibities in that package.
    Thanks.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    See [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] and [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all your extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    You have to close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Photoshop Cs5.1 wont open

    Photoshop Cs5.1 wont open, crashes on start up, already re installed it once.  its running on windows 7 and the error message that I get says "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly..."

    Noel, thanks for your answer. I checked the system info for any usage of igXXXXX.dll files (I suppose Intel GMA drivers), but found nothing. It is however showing me a list of used ati*...dll drivers from which i conclude PS is using my dedicated GPU.
    Unfortunately I did not find any option to turn off the integrated graphics in my BIOS. I tried to increase the shared memory value (it was set to 32MB) to 1024MB and let PCIE be the primary GPU device. Still, those effects don't seem to have any effect on Photoshop.

  • I just bought the canon 5d mark iii and my photoshop elements 10 wont read my raw files. I want to buy photoshop elements 13...is this compatible with my new camera?

    I just bought the canon 5d mark iii and my photoshop elements 10 won't read my raw files. I want to buy photoshop elements 13 but want to make sure my camera is compatible with it first. Thank you for your help!

    Photoshop elements 10 should be able to open those files if you update to camera raw 6.7
    Which operating system are you using?
    windows
    Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Windows : Camera Raw 6.7 update for Elements 10
    mac
    Adobe - Photoshop Elements : For Macintosh : Camera Raw 6.7 update for Elements 10
    Also, photoshop elements 13 will open those files as well.

  • JPGS are set to open in Photoshop Elements, but they open in Windows Photo Viewer instead, even when I specifically select Photoshop (and it's the default app)

    Hi,
    It seems this is a Microsoft related. You are referring on how to set JPG Image in Photoshop Elements by default. You may try visiting Microsoft's Support page http://support.microsoft.com/ for you to get the correct information/help you need.
    Thank you.

    Try making a direct desktop icon for the Editor and see if you can launch the program directly from the desktop.
    Right click anywhere on the desktop and select New à Shortcut
    Browse to Computer OS C:
    And find the PSE Editor application in Program Files or Program Files (x86) on Windows 7 - 64 bit.
    C: à Program Files à Adobe à Photoshop Elements 9
    Within the Photoshop elements 9 folder find PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe (with the blue icon)
    Select that file and click Next.
    Then click Finish.
    You should now be able to launch by double clicking on the new desktop icon, bypassing the welcome screen.
