Photoshop elements 11 Organizer does not open because I have upgraded to Windows 10

Since the upgrade to Windows 10, the organizer with Photoshop elements 11 will not be open.  I get a message that Direct Play must be installed, but it will not let me install.  I tried to run troubleshoot compatibility problems in the Control Panel, but I just got a message that a paid upgrade is available to make it compatible with the provider.  However, I can not even find what this update to buy it.

You see an error if you choose to install DirectPlay. According to the Microsoft Directplay on Windows 10 - Microsoft community forum, it is deprecated in Windows 10. But this forum thread mentions a workaround to install it anyway. Please see if it's useful.

Thank you

Catherine

  • ? Photoshop elements 8 Organizer does not open on Windows Vista?

    I installed Photoshop Elements 8 on a Windows Vista computer and saved. The organizer has opened with thumbnails broken throughout and I couldn't update the thumbnails. So, I closed the organizer and opened it again, hoping it would clear up. Instead, the organizer would not open at all, and I was not able to open the organizer since.

    Despite several requests for Support, Technical Support could not help. They said to uninstall components and reinstall, but when I uninstalled it, the screen of the software disk says I must first disable my serial no throwing items 8 and will help > deactivate.

    However, when I launched 8 elements, a screen will appear with a choice of either a free trial or to enter my serial number. I have entered my serial number and got a red 'X', and it would not accept the serial number. Technical support says that there is nothing wrong with my serial No.

    Technical support then said to download the Evaluation Version. I did it, but could not open the trial either!

    Message:

    "The files currently in use. Some issues that needed to be updated are currently in use. »

    "The following applications use files that ORT should be updated by this Setup.

    Close these applications and click Retry to continue.

    Organizer - Photoshop Elements.

    So he thinks my organizer is open and using files, and it is not open. I can not open!

    I clicked on try AGAIN and got the same message.

    I clicked IGNORE and it was installing files, arrived almost at the end, said 'product registration', then said "roll back the action" and started to go backwards.

    I had uninstalled my Elements 7 software because I intend to use now 8 elements. I decided to reinstall 7 elements to use while I was dinking autour with version 8 and now it gave me the same message:

    the serial number is an error, or is already in use by someone else!

    Now I can't use either 7 or 8.

    Help! Does anyone know how to disable a serial No., when the software has already been uninstalled? Can it be done?

    Hello

    The error message that you've shared below will come where say for some reason any Organizer.exe is still running in the Task Manager and you try to install the PES.

    If installation is back up to the end, then delete the cache.db which is located at the following location and try to install again. This step has fixed the problem for many users.

    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe PCD\cache\cache.db

    Also, before trying to install PES 8 new, delete the files in the folder folder and then try again to install. Since then, the serial number is already checked as correct, that you shouldn't be running on these issues. If you are still not able to move forward after following instructions above, then please reply back and we can connect through internet session and I can try to look into your machine and see what all I can help you.

  • Mac App Store Photoshop elements 12-editor does not open

    I bought Photoshop elements 12 Publisher from the Mac App Store. The application has been downloaded and marked as installed.

    When I try to open the application, I get an error message and PSE does not open.

    I installed on a MacBook Pro running the latest OS X 10.9.2.

    The laptop has a 64 bit CPU Core 2 Duo with 4 GB of RAM and a lot of free space on the disk.

    The error message I get is:

    "Adobe Photoshop elements than 12 editor does not open due to a problem.

    "Check with the developer to ensure that Adobe Photoshop elements 12 editor works with this version of Mac OS X." You may need to reinstall the application. «Don't forget to install the updates that are available for the application and OS X.»

    I tried to re - install the app via the App Store. However, after having to pay a second time for an application that does not work on my Mac, I did not so.

    Does anyone have any ideas as to what can happen and how to solve this problem?

    Well, it turns out, it seems that I was right.  I just received confirmation in the family Custom Photoshop community thread that I started that in fact Photoshop Elements does not work on a case-sensitive volume.  If you have a case-sensitive volume, it is also your problem.  So, I'm leaving for the Mac App Store to see about a refund.  Wish me good luck.

  • Photoshop does not open after that I upgraded my Windows 10 PC a few months ago and now it won't let me reinstall.

    Before updating my computer, Photoshop and elements 13 first works. After update from my computer, I need to click on the desktop app to open Photoshop and I would get the hourglass for a few seconds before disappearing, and that's all. I tried to see if the link was broken, but no dice. It simply doesn't get it. This seemed strange because Premiere Elements works. Since then, I tried my hand at several solutions that have failed. I tried to uninstall it and all Adobe related (including the Premiere Elements) to reinstall all programs after. Now, it won't let me install anything either and says "installation has encountered any errors. I also tried to install Premiere Elements which just won't even run. Help, please!

  • Organizer does not open after you download Adobe Photoshop Elements and Prime

    I first downloaded the Premier and Photoshop of Dell Digital Download with a new computer.  He seemed to be installed and the opening screen appeared, but when I click on the side of the organizer of each software, it won't do anything.  Does not open.  No error message, it just does not open.  I contacted Dell and they reinstalled - who took many trials - and it has yet to open Organizer.  Then, we contacted Adobe, who has resumed the computer after we downloaded Adobe instead. It still does not open on the side of the organizer for them either.  They said the question, they don't know how to fix it!  Anyone?

    Hello

    Can you please tell us what operating system you're running and which version of the elements you use.

    I'm going to assume that you use 64-bit on Windows 8.1 and using 12 items for now.

    The first screen you see normally has two or three options for the organizer and editors - which is the Welcome screen.

    I would like that you try to start the organizer directly, avoiding the Welcome screen.

    Go to your desktop and use the windows/Windows Explorer to locate the following file.

    "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Adobe\Elements Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe 12.

    Double-click this file and see if it opens.

  • Photoshop smart object layer does not open in ACR when I double click

    I have a file open in photoshop raw, it reproduces, is smart, when objects I click on the smart object on the file icon, I get another copy of the file in photoshop, the file does not open up in acr, is there a setting I'm missing?

    Post edited by: Rodwf

    This is because the smart object is a raster layer image not a raw file.  If you want a smart object RAW you must do the ACR. Instead of clicking the image open in Photoshop button. Hold down the SHIFT key the key will change to open the object in Photoshop.
