I can't reinstall adobe photoshop because the file was deleted

I had to uninstall Adobe Photoshop CS6 because it said there was a problem trying to recover a file that wasn't existing anymore. However after uninstalling the program, the entire application disappeared. I have the serial code, but i dont have the available software to recover the application.? what do I do? How can I recover this program? I need this program for school, and I am stuck right now.

If you wish to reinstall Photoshop CS6, you may download Photoshop from below link and install with your serial number

  • Cannot initialize Photoshop because preferences file was deleted

    Hi. I recently had problems with startup disk being full and had to empty Cache.
    Now, when I go to open up Photoshop CS5 for the first time after rebooting, I get this error message:
    Cannot initialize Photoshop because preferences file not found, it was deleted.
    Can anyone tell me how to correct this problem?
    Thank you,

    I had all my software, including my ‘Adobe Creative Suite 4 Design Premium’ removed from my MacPro (OSX 10.10.2) by a Computer technician after I had inadvertently installed some malware.
    Now I can’t reinstall my CS4 because the installer software wants me to identify the product from which I am upgrading, but mine isn’t on the list. The old product from which I am upgrading is called ‘Adobe Design Collection’. Furthermore, it has 4 serial numbers (one each for Photoshop, InDesign, Acrobat and Illustrator), not just one, as the installer requires.
    I know this can be done, as I have had it working for a long time. Am I doing something wrong now?

    Contact support be web chat and have them generate a working temporary serial/ challenge code for the install.

  • Could not initialize Photoshop because the file is empty.

    I tried to start Photoshop 5.1 64bit today, and it shows the blue intro screen with the reading and loading, and then it goes to a popup error message that reads, "Could not initialize Photoshop because the file is empty." I can run the 32bit version fine, but I would prefer to use the 64bit version. I am running Windows 64bit Ultimate. I have been having issues here and there with CS5.5 on this computer. I ran CS4 fine for the last few years, but since after the upgrade, things have been acting weird. About two weeks ago, InDesign refused to work, so I did a reinstall. Then, two days later, I was having other issues, so I did another reinstall. Before that, Illustrator was having issues, so I had to copy programs files from my office computer to my home computer to make it work. I am starting to wonder if my hard drive is going out. Is there an Adobe fix for just Photoshop? I have the CS5.5 installation DVDs here. I tried copying the Photoshop.exe from my office computer to my home computer and replacing it, but it didn't work either.
    What do you guys recommend? Thanks!

    I am starting to wonder if my hard drive is going out.
    Not necessarily, but it could be hopelessly fragmented and have per-sector damage. Run your disk maintenance tools from the drive's property tab and clean out unnecessary temp files, too.

  • Could not initialize Photoshop because the file is locked

    I have the problem where you get the Could not initialize Photoshop because the file is locked, where the solution was to fix the properties in the jpg. I did that and tried the Ctrl-Alt-Shft thing too. I pressed them in time and got the message to delete the settings. When I click yes, I still get the "file locked" message. If it is the scratch disk setting problem, I can't get PS open to change it. This problem started when I was opening a locked jpg from a relative. (Now none of my previous pics will open either). Any other ideas other than these that are already listed in the forums? Thanks for any help.
    Technical: Windows XP 5.1, HP7680, Photoshop CS2, 2g ram, more than enough work drives. (no Vista)
    Sequence of events: 1) recd a jpg from a relative in an email and saved it to hard drive. 2) with Photoshop unopened, I rt clkd on the jpg and chose "open with CS2". 3) PS started loading and then stopped with the "file locked" msg. Clkd on OK and PS closed. 4) tried to open PS from the shortcut (and from explorer) and got same result. 5) researched the problem and then used the Ctrl-Alt-Shft approach, got the window that asks to "delete settings" and chose ok, PS closed again. 6) went to the jpg and displayed properties and saw "This file came from another computer and might be locked....", so I clicked "unblock". 7) retried step 2, then 4 with same results. 7) tried to open an old jpg with step 2 and same result (got file locked msg). 8) no longer can bring up the "delete settings" window with the the Ctrl-Alt-Shft approach as it looks like it deleted the settings the 1st time.
    Any ideas???? Thanks again.

    Bob,
    I do not know why a locked JPG would mess up PS. I could see if you always tried to launch PS, by dbl-clicking on the JPG in Windows Explorer, but not from your Desktop shortcut, or from the PS.exe file.
    For the locked file, there is a freeware utility, Unlocker. I do not have a URL handy, but Google should find it for you. It has worked on some network assets, that seemed to lock up on me.
    Good luck, though this might not address your PS launch issue.

  • Could not initialize photoshop, because the file name was not valid

    Hello,
    my friend (not very good with computers) asked me to fix his Photoshop 8, because "it just stopped working one day". When I try to run it, I see splash screen, initializing photoshop, something about TWAIN, and then:
    Could not initialize Photoshop, because the file name was not valid
    followed by crashing the Photoshop. I tried reinstalling Photoshop, resetting user preferences, even deleting all user settings from Documents and Settings folder, but nothing - I keep getting this error. I tried plugging in his camera, usb flash disks, because I thought Photoshop may created scratch file or something in there - but it didnt work.
    So I decided to install him my copy of Photoshop CS3, just to make sure its some bug in Photoshop 8, but I didnt believe my eyes - after installing, im getting the exact error again.
    And now Im completely lost - I was unable to google the error message, looks like Im the first person ever who happened to see it.
    His computer is about two years old, 2 GHz cpu, 512 MB RAM, some decent video card, 100 GB space left on disks, operating system is Win XP SP2.
    I would really appreciate any help, thank you in advance

    >Yes, many times.
    :) never hurts to ask!
    also have you tried creating a new user with admin rights to see if it's an id issue? (sorry, there's several similar theads going on and i sometimes forget what i've read where.) there was just a guy yesterday that solved a similar problem by creating a new id. we could never tell what the problem was with the old one...

  • CS6 photoshop message 'could not load the fast core routines module because the file was not found'

    my CS6 photoshop is giving me the message 'could not load the fast core routines module because the file was not found'. this started happening after i used a trial of photoshop CC and decided not to stay with it.  my photoshop is part of my CS6 suite and i am only getting this message with photoshop, my ilustrator keeps working just fine..... does anyone know how to fix it? thanks.

    I did a search on my system and found the Photoshop has a fastcore plug-in.  Creative Cloud includes a subscription version of CS6 version 13.1.2.   I do not know if you installed that or not.  The cc un-install may have done something.  You may need to use Adobe Cleaner then Install The Perpetual CS6 version of Photoshop  CS6 version 13.0.6 Mac or Photoshop  CS6 version 13.0.1.3 PC and not the subscription CS6 extended version 13.1.2.  Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6   If you need to download the CS6 installer Download CS6 products.
    You may also be able to recover your cs6 using an old system backup
    fastcore.8bx on my system...

  • CS2/W8 - Could not initialize photoshop because the file is locked

    I just upgraded to Windows 8 64 bit last night.  I had been running Cs2 just fine on Windows 7 64 bit for a few years now.   In fact I used it last week.  Now after the upgrade is complete, I get this error message when I try to launch CS2: 
    Could not initialize photoshop because the file is locked. use the properties command in the Windows Explorer to unlock the file.
    Of course, there is no mention of which file is locked. 
    I tried a repair install, it didnt help, same error. 

    HAve you tried resetting preferences?  Start PS and IMMEDIATELY hold down the shift ctrl alt keys.  Should get a reset window if fast enough.

  • How do I fix Camera Raw in CS6? I get "Could not complete request because the file was not found"

    How do I fix my Camera Raw in Photoshop CS6? I tried to view an NEF file in CS6, but it said I had to update my Camera Raw to 7.3 (I had 7.0). I went online and the only thing I could find was to download 8.6 so I started with that, and installed something and it didn't work, and then it told me I couldn't download 8.6 because my OS X is not 10.7 ( I have 10.6.8). Now when I go back into photoshop it gives me this error "Could not complete request because the file was not found" and I cant open any jpegs in photoshop.  I have tried shutting down my computer, deleting caches, and uninstalling photoshop and reinstalling it. Still no luck. Any idea how I can fix this?

    Follow these instructions to manually update your ACR plug-in to ACR 8.3, which was the last version compatible with your OS:

  • Error message: Could not complete your request because the file was not found.

    Tonight tried to open images in Photoshop CC 2014. Could not open any. Received the message "Could not complete your request because the file was not found."
    I installed latest updates yesterday. Today not working. Can anyone assist?

    Well, then you do want your layered file back and the nice thing about Macs, Time Machine does keep hourly backups on your Mac. You should be able to enter Time Machine and restore that file.
    I had hoped opening your file in another app might relase it so you could open it in PS.

  • How do I fix my photosop when is says that it could not load FastCore Routines module because the file was not found?

    Every time I try to turn on Photoshop a pop up shows up and says "Could not load the FastCore Routines module because the file was not found." How do I fix this?@

    Here is a solution for an older version of Photoshop with a slightly different message, but it might be the same reason—trying to use older PS plug-ins with a newer version of PS:

  • HT1657 I downloaded (and paid for), a movie and when I attempted to open it, the computer told me to trash it because the file was damaged. This support site is absolutely unhelpful and I feel as if I'm running through a maze... ridiculous.

    Hi all,
    I paid for a rental and couldn't find the download. When I did locate the file and tried to open it, a message appeared telling me to trash it because the file was damaged. Can't believe this. It's getting late, wanted to relax with a movie and have spent the last 20 minutes trying to troubleshoot.
    Ridiculous.

    Jodie84,
    I have just checked your account and found that you indeed have bought a Creative Cloud for Teams subscription but you have assigned the single seat to another user hence you ( If you are using your own Adobe ID ) are getting the trial error message.
    Two options : Either reassign the seat to your self or add an additional seat and invite your self in the same Team.
    Cheers,
