PSE 7 editor will not open in XP

I installed PSE 7 several weeks ago and it has been working fine. Now, when I attempt to open the editor nothing happens. It opens in Task Manager, multiple times if tried, but is never actually visible. I have un-installed and re-installed, deleted the preference files, cleared the registry, nothing works.

Matt,
Try installing the licensing-service update:
http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshopelements-6-7-faq.htm#_Install_the_licensing-s ervice
If that doesn't work, I recommend these troubleshooting steps:
http://www.johnrellis.com/psedbtool/photoshopelements-6-7-faq.htm#_Troubleshooting_Editor_ crashes
doing the steps precisely as described by Adobe. Even if you've done a step before, it's easy to make a mistake, so it's worth trying a second time.

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 7.0\Locales\\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 Thanks,Garry

CyclPhotoshop Ellments 11 Editor will not open. Also I can edit in quick edit, but when I do, copy of picture is sent to ree bin. I am using Windows 7 ?

Photoshop 11 Editor will not open. Also I can edit in quick edit, but when I do copy of picture is sent to recycle bin. I am using Windows 7

I have solved the problem myself. I noticed when running Task Manager
that I was using a lot of resources (>60% CPU) when running Organizer. I
disabled Auto Analyzer and Face Recognition and all is fine now. I will add
one or the other a little at a time to see which is actually causing the
problem.

MY Photo Editor will not open.

In my Photoshop Elements 12 - the ORGANIZER program wil open OK, but the PHOTO EDITOR
will not open.

I am using Windows 7. PSE 11 works normal. So my computer and memory must be good enough.

Editor will not open. How to fix?

We had our printer software worked on yesterday. Now the PSE8 editor will not open. The words "launching editor" shows up for several seconds then nothing happens. The organizer opens fine. I tried deleting the settings with the control-alt-shift combination and that did not help. I also uninstalled then reinstalled the PSE8 software and that did not fix it either. How can I repair this?

Try right clicking the desktop icon or the edit button on the welcome screen and choose “Run As Administrator”

Elements 12 (Editor) will not open?

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 installed on my Windows 7 computer.
I am no longer able to open the Editor portion of the program. The Organizer seems to be working but every time I try to switch to the Editor, I get the following error message.
"A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Close program.
Thanking you in advance for any help regarding the above problem.

•You MUST use an account with Administrator Privileges to run Premiere Elements

Photoshop Elements 11 Editor will not open pictures

My Photostop Elements 11 Editor will not open pictues. I have tried to uninstall/install the product and this didn't work. I can get it to work once in awhile and then it stops working again. Suggestions?

Go to the editor preferences>general, click this button and restart the editor:
Uninstalling doesn't do anything about the preference files.

PSE 11 Editor will not start

PSE 11 Editor will not start; the Organizer does. I have tried uninstalling PSE 11 and received the following error box: " Error 1306.Another application has exclusive access to the file C:\PhotoshopElements\11.0\ThumbDatabase.db3. Please shut down all other appllications, then click Retry." I tried installing WITHOUT uninstalling and got the same error. How can I get the Editor going again and/or get around this uninstall/install error?

try launching the organizer through its exe , for that you can right click on the icon and go to Find target location , select PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe. See if the organizer launches , also if it launches then try reinstalling this application again

Hi,
Please try out the following workarounds and see if it helps:
1. Renaming SLCache and SLStore folders
Please go to following location:
WIN: C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe
MAC: System Library/Application Support/Adobe
and rename the SLCache folder present there.
Similarly, rename SLStore folder present at following location
WIN: C:\ProgramData\Adobe
MAC: System Library/Application Support/Adobe
After renaming these folders, try to login into the sign-in screen again.
In case it does not help, try out this:
2. Switch the User account to Hidden Administrator. Try signing in from there.
Enable the (Hidden) Administrator Account on your WIN machine. To enable the same, please refer to link.
Sign Out of current user account and then log in with the new account created.
Try launching Photoshop Elements Editor and login into the sign in screen that pops up.
If editor launches up fine, you can disable the Hidden Administrator account created in first step. Steps to disable the account have been mentioned in the same link.
Thanks,

PSE 8.0 Will Not Open (Including Editor and Organizer)

I have been using PSE 8.0 for three or four years now, and I have never experienced any problems with it. Today, after installed a Wacom Intuos Creative Pen Tablet, my PSE 8.0 would not open-- nor would Editor and Organizer. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program, renaming certain files (as read in other answers), creating shortcuts to bypass the Welcome Screen (which also will not appear), among other solutions that I read about for similar problems. Whenever I attempt to open Organizer, a crash report appears, stating that the program has quit unexpectedly--that's all it says. If I try to open PSE 8 or Editor, the circle next to my cursor appears for a moment, but soon it disappears without a single pop-up or explanation as to why the program won't open. Since I cannot access the Welcome Screen, I cannot locate the Preference file to change the name/delete it. If it matters, I use Windows 7.
Any and all help is appreciated. I'm going a bit insane without my lovely Photoshop to doodle in. ;n;
Thank you,
~ Mongoose

EDIT: I found the Preferences within the PSE folder, and I renamed it; afterwards, I tried to open PSE again. It reset the Preferences, yet it is still telling me that PSE has unexpectedly quit. /EDIT
I went into the PSE folder and attempted the "three finger salute" while clicking on Organizer, but all it brought up were the Organizer Properties.
Also, within the past hour, PSE has been randomly popping multiple times up to inform me that it unexpectedly quit, yet I have not tried to open it recently. I am not sure if that is important or not.

PSE 8 Editor does not open

PSE 8 editor has stopped opening. I've tried opening it from the organizer and from the welcome page. The loading-the-editor box pops up like it's going to open, but then the loading box goes away with no editor opening. I tried un-installing and reinstalling the program to no avail. The computer has Windows 7, 64-bit. Any help would be greatly appreciated... the PSE organizer portion is pretty worthless without the editor!

It sounds like you could be experiencing a conflict with a scanner driver.
Go back the Program Files (x86) >>Plug-ins>>Import/Export and delete the TWAIN driver.
Elements will work without it, but if you have scanner and want to scan directly PSE you'll need to install an up to date driver from the manufacturer's web site.
If you don’t use a scanner there’s nothing to worry about.
If that doesn’t work you may need to re-build the preferences.
You do that by holding down Ctrl+Alt+Shift whilst simultaneously clicking Edit on the welcome screen.
When you see a pop-up behind the welcome screen click yes, to delete settings.
Then re-start Elements and it will re-build the preferences.

PSE 9 suddenly will not open pse files - due to "program error"

The program was working fine yesterday and now suddenly will not open pse files created yesterday or today. The error message reads "could not complete action due to program error." Am I going to need to deactivate and reinstall - and if so, how do I do that? Will I lose all brushes loaded into presets, all files currently unable to be opened if I do that?

I have the same or at least similar issue - When try
ing to open a Photoshop Elements 9 slideshow I get this message
"This application has requested the Runtime
to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact
this application's support team for further assistance" I first saw this problem today - can't think of why now. I've had the program since last Christmas.
I sure would like a solution as I'm in the midst of a project with it.
