I chatted with tech support online and they told me I would get a call later because they could not assist. Over the phone they tried to control my laptop remotely but were unsuccessful error: Your device is not compatible. They had me turn off all firewalls but still no luck. Now it is a system error I am told. How can I download my apps (Premiere Elements and Photoshop)?

 

Microsoft 11 Home

Version 24H2

Hi there,

Did you try the steps listed in the article shared by @kglad above? Also, could you confirm if you are looking forward to install any particular version of Adobe Photoshop Elements and Adobe Premiere Elements?
