What programs Adobe and versions are compatible with Windows 7?

Buy a new computer with Windows 7, but I don't want to spend a fortune on new versions of other programs I run on an existing XP machine.  Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0 and Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard are compatible with Windows 7?  If not, what type of upgrade do need me?  Can I run these programs if I'm running the free download "Virtual PC and XP Mode"?

Hi Mbgillis,

Adobe Photoshop Elements 2.0 and Adobe Acrobat 6.0 Standard are not compatible with Windows 7.

Click the link for the Windows 7 Compatibility Center: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Search.aspx?type=Software&s=Adobe%20Photoshop%20Elements%202.0

You can upgrade to Adobe Acrobat Standard 9.0 from the link below:

You can install the programs mentioned above in Windows XP compatibility mode if you wish.

To change compatibility settings manually for a program, right-click the program icon, click Properties, and then click the Compatibility tab.

Make sure to run older programs in this version of Windows: http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

You can also install Virtual PC and XP mode and use the programs.

Thank you, and in what concerns:
