Elements 13

I had Elements 13, but my computer crashed. I still have the original CD and was wanting to put it on my new computer. My new computer does not have CD access. How can I get my original photoshop on my new computer?

It's unlikely that your new computer can support such old software.   Too much has changed in 9 years!

 

Get modern Photoshop Elements 2022 by digital download.

Mac or Windows and exactly which operating system?

 

IF WINDOWS

Two ideas that MAY work to install and/or run old programs in Windows 10 (and MAYBE Windows 11 ?)
-RIGHT click the program icon or EXE and select a compatibility mode in the pop up option window
-and/or select Run as Administrator to assign FULL Windows permissions

Plug in CD drives are inexpensive, but it may be that you find this very old app does not run on your new computer.
