I can't get Adobe photoshop elements 12 to launch. Error 0xc000007b

Hello if someone could help me I would greatly appreciate it. I've recently installed Adobe Photoshop Elements 12. But I am yet to get the software to start, instead I get the following message:
'The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application.'
I've looked on various forums but none of the suggested solutions have worked. I've also unistalled and reintalled photoshop to no avail. The computer does not freeze when I get the message.
Does anyone have a fail safe suggestion, other than reinstalling the operating system (Windows 8)?
Thanks

Hi,
Try creating shortcuts direct to the applications and use them each time.
Create shortcuts pointing to the following files:-
Organizer: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 12 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"
Editor: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 12\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
Please let us know if they work.
Good luck
Brian

  • Where can I get Adobe Photoshop Elements *5*?

    I own a license for Photoshop Elements version 5, and tech support says it is no longer available. Does anyone have a source for this application? I have the license but cannot find the executable that I downloaded and purchased from Adobe.
    On the other hand, if anyone can provide the executable name for version 5, I can search more places to see if I do, in fact, have a copy of it.
    Thanks much!

    Yes, you can download Adobe Photoshop Elements 9. The only thing that you need to do is go to this LINK http://prodesigntools.com/photoshop-elements-9-premiere-elements-9-dir ect-download-links.html and download it. You need to follow the ADOBE download instructions.
    First, you need to sign in with your Adobe ID. Second, go to the LINK I gave you and find Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 (PSE 9) Direct Download Links, them give a click to File 2 and download it (it takes time), them when it is done (downloaded) another click to File 1. After you finished downloading File 1, it will ask you to enter your Serial Number of the product. After you put the Serial Number of the your product, Adobe Elements 9 will be in your computer.
    If for some reason you don't know or you don't remember the Serial Number of your product, go to your Account and Sign in with your Adobe ID, then go to "My products and Services" and it will tell you the Serial Number of the product.
    You will find "My products and Services" on the top right side of the screen, where it say "Welcome xxxxx". Remember, to see "My products and Services" first you need to Sign in with your Adobe ID.

  • I have a new pc with win8.1 and I can't get my Photoshop Elements vers 1.0.1 to instal  help, please.

    I have a new pc with win8.1 and I can't get my Photoshop Elements vers 1.0.1 to instal  help, please.
    Please assist with this compatibility issue.   Thank you

    Gordonr18571658 I am sorry I don't have any additional suggestions for how to install Photoshop Elements 1.0 besides installing in compatibility mode for Windows XP.
    As an alternative you can find details regarding Photoshop Elements 13 at Picture editor, edit pictures | Adobe Photoshop Elements 13.  Photoshop Elements 13 has been designed to install and function under Windows 8.1.  There is a 30 day trial if you wish to evaluate the software and complete any current photo editing projects you may be facing.

  • Can't install Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 onto my iMac from CD

    I can't install Adobe Photoshop Elements 9 onto my iMac I just purchased. The software is brand new, the CD appears to read fine. The instillation "on-screen" instructions are not popping up. I have had the software a minute, purchased it new but was waiting till I could afford an iMac. Any suggestions?

    How are you using a CD with a new imac? They haven't had disc drives in years.
    Try downloading from here and use the serial number from your boxed version:
    Download Photoshop Elements products | 9, 8, 7
    However, there are a couple of other things to try. First of all, PSE 9 has both mac and windows discs. If the disc doesn't mount on the desktop, then you've got the wrong one. Go get the other one and when it appears on the desktop, double click it.  Then double click Adobe Photoshop Elements 9, double click Install/Setup (can't remember which it was for PSE 9, sorry). There is no automatic install for PSE for mac, since macs have no autoplay function for security reasons, and there isn't any window with instructions, either. You just keep double clicking till it installs.

  • How can I deactivate Adobe photoshop elements 9 when its un-installed?

    How can I deactivate Adobe photoshop elements 9 when its un-installed? I told my husband I had to get it off the third computer but he trying to help me did not deactivate it before he  un-installed it!!!!
    Now what? I am only using this on 2 computers and I'm told I am using it on a 3rd and I'm not.
    How can I fix this?
    It wont work on the 3rd one anyway because its so old and limited it crashes every time I try. But I need this on my 2 good computers.

    One way could be to reinstall it on the third computer and then deactivate it and uninstall it.
    If that doesn't work out or if you'd rather try this route it should work... contact Adobe Support either by chat or via phone and they should be able to help.  Chat is usually 24/7
    Here are some links to help make contact:

  • I can only install adobe photoshop elements 12 but not able to install adobe premiere element 12 with the serial number to my macbook

    why I can only install adobe photoshop elements 12 but not able to install adobe premiere elements 12 with the same serial number to my macbook?
    Photoshop Elements

    PSE and PRE have different serial numbers. If you bought both programs you should have two separate serial numbers.

  • How can I change Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 into English version?

    It's strange for the second download shows Franch, how to change it to English version? Thanks.

    Thanks for response.  I purchase Photoshop Elements 10 from App store, the first install is ok-in English, but my computer reset for some problem, so I installed it again. But this time, it's not English version but the other that I cannot recognize. How can I do? I forgot to save the serial number, where can I check it?
    Thanks for help.

    The language is tied to the serial number.  Did you purchase the software directly from Adobe?

  • Hi, how can I upgrade Adobe Photoshop Elements 9

    Hi, how can I upgrade Adobe Photoshop Elements 9? I have Acer with Windows 7

    Well, you could buy the upgrade to PSE 13 from adobe, but most times it's much cheaper to buy the full version from a big box store or online retailer.

    New computer, how can I get my photoshop elements onto it?

    I have no idea where the original installation media is, cloning the entire system right now is very unwise as there were many problems which I do not want to affect my new system.  Is there any other way to do it.  I see that the key is registered in my stuff box.

  • 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!
    Peter
