Runtime error on Photoshop

Hi, When I open Photoshop CS4 on Windows XP using a limited account, I see the error attached. Photoshop CS4 will work normally, however if I run as administrator.

My guessing is that the problem is with Photoshop trying to access files it needs to run that cannot be accessed when using the a limited windows account. Maybe try running photoshop in capability mode? Or reinstalling CS4? That’s really my only guess of this, is that Photoshop is trying to run a file that it can’t access, have you contacted tech support or customer service or anything like that? Maybe they can help. But why are you running it in a limited account when you have access to administration account? But yea that’s all I can guess would be the problem, I hope it helps.

  • Why do I keep getting a runtime error in Photoshop Elements 6.0?

    I have had Photoshop Elements 6.0 for several years now with no issues at all.  Recently my computer crashed and I bought a new ASUS touchscreen laptop (Q301L model).  I have tried, with no luck, to get Photoshop to work. After a few actions, it will come up with a window that says "Could not complete your request because of a program error" and occasionally it will come up with a "Runtime Error!" notification that says "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.  Please contact the application's support team for more information."
    I have searched all the existing forums on this subject and none of the solutions presented have worked.  I have tried: re-installation (5 times now), running as an administrator, deleting the MediaDatabase.db3 file, renaming the MediaDatabase.db3 file to MediaDatabase.old and allowing to rebuild, repairing with the installation disk, troubleshooting and running in compatibility mode, holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift as Editor opens and then deleting preferences, allowing Photoshop through my firewall.  I am out of ideas and I really need this program to work.  Please help!

    It might be a bug in the new version of Adobe Reader.  http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;125749
    Looking at my system, the path for AcroRd32.exe for Adobe Reader 9.1 is C:\Program Files\Adobe\Reader 9.0\Reader\AcroRd32.exe.  I don't know if you mistyped your path, but you do not have \Reader\ in it.  If you mouse over the file AcroRd32.exe, it should show you version 9.1.
    Did you uninstall the previous version before installing the latest version?  That is the recommended way to do it.  I filled out my Federal Tax forms with Adobe Reader 9.1 without a problem.  This is on Windows XP SP3, fully updated.

  • Runtime error in Photoshop cs4

    I have been using the Adobe Photoshop CS4 application for a while now...however...it has kind of broken on me now.
    Everytime I run the application now, it gives me a runtime error.
    "Runtime Error!
    Program C:\Pro...
    after instaling new updates  from adobe flash & reader i have uninstalled everything and re installed it all and i still get the error
    im runninhg windowns vista 64x

    What caused the problem with the cs4 Photoshop?  i don't know. all i did was  install an update for abobe flash and reader and then i had a problem with Photoshop. i did uninstall Photoshop and then again reinstalled  it and still did not work.so i must say the answer you gave me was not only useless but wrong too. what are runtime errors  i don't know  & don't care  & the same with DLL's what i do care about is that the program that i have works properly
    i do think the correct answer would have been try uninstalling   and then reinstalling the complete CS4web software and not just the Photoshop software.
    Why because that did fix the runtime error  and everything works great.
    Sorry, but this is a rather useless post. Runtime errors are just generic crashes, most of the time caused by some missing DLL or damaged/ bad driver. Unless you know exactly what you did and can provide more details from the crash report, this is going nowhere. Could be anything from a graphics driver problem to more genric issues...
    Thanks anyway

  • C++ runtime error opening Photoshop CS3

    Does anyone know how to fix this issue?  We have re-imaged our school district computers with XP SP3 and IE7, and now on Creative Suite CS3, only Photoshop will not open as a student. It opens only as administrator and students get the runtime error. All other apps in the Suite work fine. They worked with the same install job before the updates, and reverting back is not an option. I have two high schools with site licenses and have to get this working by September.
    Thanks!

    Yes, it is installed on each pc.  I create a scripted install that we push
    using Altiris deployment. There is a desktop icon, but run as admin isn't
    an option on the shortcut. Additionally, if it was, I don't know how I
    would make it carry to all users that log on.  The re-image is essentially
    just updates to Windows - SP3 and IE7 specifically, and updates to flash,
    shock, adobe reader, etc.  We did see some issues when we 1st let IE7
    install with tighter security, but this problem didn't  start until the
    new images rolled out. Unfortunately, I have to have the images with SP3
    and IE7 in them, they'd just bog down the network running as updates
    anyway. IF there is a registry key that could accomplish this, I can
    script that or ask to have  it put into our network policies for Active
    Directory if I know which key.
    I appreciate your help.
    Thank you.

  • Runtime error sur photoshop element 11

    Bonjour, j'ai acheté photoshop element 11 et l'ai installé. Après quelques jours d'utilisation, il a cessé de fonctionner et le message runtime error est apparut a l'écran. J'ai désinstallé le programme et j'ai effectué la réinstallation avec succès. Par la suite encore après quelques jours, le même problème et message de Runtime error est réapparut...Sur les liens j'ai trouvé les recommandations d'un expert d'Adobe qui disait de modifier le fichier Mediadatabase.db3 par mediadatabase.old sauf que je ne trouve pas ce dit fichier...
    Pourriez vous me donner la cause et la solution a ce problème une fois pour toute ?? Merci de l'attention

    It is extremely frustrating and disappointing that Adobe can not be more helpful and effective in solving this problem.

  • Permanent solution to Runtime Error

    I have a "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Error" using Photoshop Elements 11 and have cleared it by renaming the MediaDatabase.db3 file as suggested. The only problem is, it occurs every time I start Photoshop and it's getting a bit tiresome having to go through the same process before I can open the software.  Is there a more permanent solution?

    Hi,
    first of all please read the forum rules:
    << Do not post the same question across a number of forums >>
    And second: I already moved your first thread about this problem to the correct forum. It is not necessary to open a second one again in the wrong forum. It is like doing the same fault twice.

  • Any one else have Microsoft C++ runtime error in Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 (non cloud version)

    I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 for 9 months successfully with no issues.  Last night, for no reason, it stopped working , giving me a Microsoft C++ runtime error.  I have tried every trouble shooting suggestion, including resetting the computer, deleting recent updates, disk cleanup, etc.  I finally un installed the program, and when I attempted to re-install, it got almost to the end of the install, and then I get a message " The installation process encountered an error using Shared Technologies".   Can anyone help me?  Technical support for store bought copies of this program is non existant.  It took me 2 hours to find a  phone number that works and that was only for cloud users, and the only support they offer is a chat room , which disappeard from my screen this morning, and is no being offered at least today.   I must have this program for my photography classes I take 2 x a week.  Please help!

  • I have been getting a "Runtime Error" and can't open Adobe Photoshop Elements Editor

    We are using Adobe Photoshop Elements version 9.0.3 (20110328.m.11320).  For several weeks it has not been possible to open the Editor, although the Organizer opens as usual.  We get an error message that says "Runtime Error! Program: ...\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 9\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.  Please contact the application's support team for more information."  What can we do to correct this problem?

    Thanks, Ken!  I have to reply by e-mail, as the Forum site has been down
    for maintenance since last night.
    I am running Windows 7 Professional SP1.
    Uninstalling and booting should be straightforward.  I saved the
    following files in my Downloads folder from my initial installation of
    Adobe PSE 9.0 on 4/22/11:
    Adobe_Photoshop_Elements_9-AkamaiDLM.exe (355 kb application)
    PhotoshopElements_9_LS15.exe (1,200 kb application)
    PhotoshopElements_9_LS15.7z (1,838,546 kb WinRAR archive)
    Will these suffice for reinstalling the program?  Can you tell me how I
    should go about the reinstallation?  (I tried to find a page to download
    the Adobe PSE 9.0 program on the Adobe website, but could only locate a
    patch for 9.0.3, which I think must already have been included in the
    original installation.)
    Also, there are four folders, corresponding to four catalogs, in
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Elements Organizer\Catalogs.  Will those survive
    the uninstall/reinstall process?  Should I back them up just prior to
    uninstalling to preserve them for restoration after the reinstall?
    Finally, should I back up the 9.0 and Organizer folders in
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Elements Organizer for restoration as well?  And
    the C:\ProgramData\Adobe\Photoshop Elements folder?
    Thank you.  I am grateful for your help!
