Computer issues since installing Photoshop Elements 11

I have had nothing but problems in other software programs since installing PE11.  The most recent?  PE11 replaced ALL of my programs with itself.  Try to open Excel?  You get PE11.  This happened with every program.  I had to totally uninstall PE11 to get my computer back.  Any suggestions?  I have a newer HP running Windows 7.  I'd like to use PE11, but wondering if its worth the frustration.

sounds good.

  • Computer crashed whilst installing photoshop elements 11, now serial number invalid?

    Recently purchased photoshop elements 11, when installing my computer crashed. When attempting to install for a second time it now displays a message saying my serial ref is invalid?
    Do I need to get a new reference?
    If so, how do I get a new reference?

    Dgjr7878 it is likely that the current installation of Photoshop Elements and it's licensing files got corrupted if your computer is crashing.  Is this a common occurance?  If so you may want to address the stability difficulties you are experiencing with your current computer prior to reinstalling.
    There are additional steps you can try to recover from your computer's unexpected restart.  Which operating system are you using exactly?

    Hi Jane Glenn,
    As CS 6 was never tested on any of the latest versions, there could be an issue with compatibility of the OS and the software that you are using.

  • Installing photoshope elements 12 and premiere elements 12 on Mac/windows

    I own a Mac with bootcamp installed. so I have a mac and windows 7 (one computer)
    I have installed photoshop elements 12 and premiere elements 12 on mac
    and want to install it on the window side.
    On the windows 7 side I do have photoshop elements 7 installed but, what to uninstall and
    put in 12.
    12 has been registered
    and so has 7

    All versions of Elements can coexist, so you don't need to uninstall v7. Also note Barbara's reply in your other discussion concerning licensing.
    Cheers,

  • Installing Photoshop Elements in a computer lab?

    Hey there!
    I am trying to install Photoshop Elements 12 in a computer lab. We have 33 computers that we would like to have Photoshop Elements 12 installed on. We have licenses for them but the concern is the whole Adobe ID setup. This is a high school computer lab and a big cause for concern is giving students access to our licenses and them also having the ability to sign themselves out of Photoshop. Right now we are looking at making Adobe IDs for all 33 computers, is this the best way to go about this? And is there any way to disable their ability to sign out? If anyone feels like helping me out, it would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

    I don't think there is any way to do this, since PSE is not part of Creative Cloud and the usual CC for Teams management and deployment tools will not work. Creating unique Adobe IDs seems the only way...

    I am trying to install Photoshop Elements on my new Windows 8 computer (I recently upgraded my windows 7 computer where Photoshop was working fine on before).  It says the serial number is invalid.  Do older versionsnot work on Windows8, or do I need to uninstall it from my old computer first?

    You are allowed to have two activated installations.  If you happened to have one on this Windows 8 machine before, it is possible that the activation used for it was never deactivated (did you deactivate it before you upgraded Windows?).  Talk to Adobe support thru chat.  They might be able to resolve this with you:

    You haven't mentioned which version of PSE. If it is PSE 13, that requires a minimum of windows 7.

    Is there an instruction sheet detailing how to install Photoshop Elements 13 (from a DVD disk), on a Windows 8.1 computer, and if so, where do I find it?

    Googled for an instruction sheet.  Got the following.
    https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/getting-started/install-pse.html
    and
    https;//helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/photoshop-elements-installation-errors.html
    (Don't know why the second one didn't turn into a link, that's the url that printed out at the bottom of the page)
    In any case it doesn't matter.  I returned it to the store where I bought it.
    Rule #1; Don't use a product if the people who produce that product (software, hardware, etc.) don't properly support it.
    User forums and\or chat lines, are useful and may help.  But!  They do not constitute proper support (not for installation purposes anyway).

    Hi Kimberly,
    Please follow these steps:

    and
    SLStore to Slstore.old
    C:\ProgramData\Adobe\SLStore

  • Due to Photoshop Elements 12 Organizer I uninstalled the program.  When I re-installed Photoshop Elements 12 on the same computer the "Photoshop Elements 12.0.exe" file is not available.  I have tried loading Photoshop Elements 12 from the Adobe web site

    Due to Photoshop Elements 12 Organizer I uninstalled the program.  When I re-installed Photoshop Elements 12 on the same computer the "Photoshop Elements 12.0.exe" file is not available.  I have tried loading Photoshop Elements 12 from the Adobe web site without success.

    The Elements 12 shortcut can't find the Elements12.0.exe file so the program will not load.  I can load the editor from its .exe file but not the organizer.

    I installed Photoshop Elements 11 on a new computer a month ago. It opened several times until yesterday. I uninstalled it and now am trying to reinstall from the CDs that I own and it will not read the disk. Nothing happens. I had previously downloaded it to my laptop and work computer. How do I install it again?

    You can't run PSE from a USB drive, nor can you transfer PSE to a different computer via a USB drive. PSE must be installed on a computer using the installer program provided by Adobe.

    It is not viewable on your old computer.  We may be able to get you a replacement serial number.  Do you still have your proof of purchase for Photoshop Elements 5?

    you probably should have two files, an exe and a 7z file in the same directory.  if so, click (or double click) the exe.
    if that fails, what files(s) (name and extension) and file size(s) have you downloaded?
