Cannot install my Photoshop 7 again. The setup.exe looks dead.

I can't install my Photoshop 7 again. The setup.exe file appears dead. The CD sounds great.

I reinstalled a new version of Win. XP Pro Sp3 and it wiped out many of my programs, so I have been re - install. Of course, I lost the registry and have to build a new by reinstalling my programs. But my Photoshop 7 CD seems to have a dead setup.exe file and he won't answer as before. I tried everything including turning off virus program. I don't know what else to do. Maybe I need a new setup.exe file but I have no idea where I might get one.

Yes, I have a registered product. Can someone help me?

Thank you, Judi

Thanks a lot for your suggestion R_Kelly.

Yes, I had tried to copy the contents of the Setup disk to both my external Seagate drive and the right on the C: drive, itself, but without success.

But I just live a miracle and installed like butter - to my total surprise.  I will share my experience in case where someone Vienna with a similar problem and maybe help them my situation.

When I installed the "rescue disk" to replace my whole OS on my laptop, technicians had given me a choice in the options that I didn't really know how to choose, and I've been an IT professional at the end of the 1990s. That's where I got in trouble. What I wanted to do, it was just to crush my Windows XP Pro SP3, as we do in the 'old days' when computers were free and not all the owners. When I chose to remove the current Windows partition to make room for the new facility, apparently she also deleted the registry and my computer had no knowledge of the programs I had installed and I had to reinstall just about everything.   I thought I was okay with that.

Finalizing the installation of the new Windows OS, I was asked to give my computer a 'name '.  Well, I do remember that I never gave a name before and there was no place for me to go to discover. So, I gave her a name 'JudiLenova '.  When I couldn't have my programs to run, I thought that maybe I had lost not only my registry file, but maybe some ini files I had left do not recognize this name, so I changed it to "Judi", still don't not Recalling that, if necessary, the name I had given him before.  As I met problems with trying to install Photoshop, I watched my systems directories and saw that there was equal files in two different ways, one for each name. I was wondering if perhaps BACK, which cannot make decisions, could not decide which way was the right one to find files, I needed. Of course, I wish not to use the option "repair" on the hot spare, but it was too late. I need this computer to use all the tools I have installed on it.

I bought a program powerful fixit recommended by CNET to fix things and he has found more than 1400 problems but still nothing solved this problem.

One thing I noticed is that sometimes when I do a restart of the computer, Windows Installer suddenly would show complete installation of Photoshop, but then he'd stop initialization because of the recovery. (So close and yet so far!)  I knew that the old system was over and stupidly I had deleted the full backup that I had stored on the Seagate, then I looked at the option 'restore' to see what thresholds it was to see if maybe I could go back to a bygone era. The only restore point, that I had was for the day that I had installed the hot spare. I said "what the heck" and opted to make it back. When I made this choice, I received the message that the major change would be that the name of the computer would change "Judi" to "JudiLenova."  I thought it might solve some of my problem. Surprisingly, it seems to have solved the problem of Photoshop because I put the disc in my drive D: and wide, she went without a hitch!

My hunch is that BACK could not find the Install Shield to activate the installation. Whatever the cause of the miracle, I am grateful that I didn't not throw my computer in the Lake outside my window... but of course, it was tempting.

Thanks again for your attempts to rescue me. I hope this helps the guy next door happens.  Now, I'll try to install the rest of my beloved old programs Adobe and everything.   Fingers crossed!

Judi :-)

    Hello

     
    You are able to install other updates successfully?
     
    See the methods mentioned below and check if that helps.
     
    Method 1: Temporarily disable the security software.

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you do not disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network during the time that your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

    Method 2: put the computer in a clean boot state to see if there is a software conflict as the clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  • Win 7/CS5 cannot install for Photoshop Pixelbender

    Asked me to start a thread flavor Win7 on my inability to install PixelBender for Photoshop CS 5.

    There are currently two installation programs: one for Photoshop 5 and one for Photoshop 5.1.

    These two don't. '5' Installer said whatever something enigmatic about '12' version is necessary, and the other said something enigmatic about "12.1" being necessary.

    My version of Photoshop is to12.0.4.

    The Pixelbender team asked me to explain why I am no longer under my installed version of Pixelbender. The answer is that I've migrated to a more powerful machine to Win 7 and had to install again.

    I was able to install the Pixel Bender plug-in for Photoshop CS5 64-bit in Photoshop 12.0.4 carefree on Win7 (64 bit). Have you tried the Extension Manager CS5 executable running as administrator?

  • Cannot install Adobe Photoshop

    I have a new amd64 to computer, 2 TB of storage, 8 GB of RAM, Windows 7, and I want to install Adobe Photoshop 7.0. When I tried, I got the message: you currently have Adobe PhotoShop Scratch primary and main Windows swap file on the same volume that may result in reduced performance. It is recommended that you set volume of Adobe PhotoShop Scratch primary to be on a different volume, preferably on another physical drive'.

    Then I get another message: "could not initialize PhotoShop for scratch disks are full."

    The program closes automatically. Strangely, Adobe Image Ready seems to work very well, but the main program is not. I have tried holding the Ctrl, Alt, Shift keys while the program was running, but that did not help.

    Could you possibly give me step by step instructions on how to fix? I am computer illiterate. Thank you.

    Hello Iluvpharmacy,

    You can consult the following site that describes the error that you are experiencing with Photoshop 7.
    http://graphicssoft.about.com/od/Photoshop/f/scratchdisk.htm

    Article: it is also possible to get the error "scratch disk is full", even if the disk hard scratch has free space. It's because Photoshop requires contiguous, not fragmented free space on the disk hard scratch. If you get the "scratch disk is full" error message and your drive hard scratch shows a good amount of free space, you may need to run a disk defragmentation utility.

    If it does not help your question, you can post your question in the Adobe Community Forums for assistance.
