I'm trying to reinstall Photoshop CS4

Question

I'm trying to reinstall Photoshop CS4 after I had a computer repair. I have my key and I downloaded the 2 files on the adobe dl page for CS4, There's a _LS1 file of 1,200 KB and a larger _LS2.7z file of 796M. But when I double-click on the LS1 files, which says it's an application, I get an error message that says I need the 'other file', to download the 'other file' and make sure it's in the same directory. But I do have both LS1 and LS2.7z files in the same directory. Any suggestions? Do I need something to extract the files?

Thanks in advance!

they're not matching files. ie, you have the archive for a different (like the japanese) ps cs4.

retry.

Download and installation help for Adobe links

Download and installation help for Prodesigntools links are listed on most linked pages. They are critical; especially steps 1, 2 and 3. If you click a link that does not have those steps listed, open a second window using the Lightroom 3 link to see those 'Important Instructions'.

no, you don't need to explicitly extract the 7z. the exe will do that when you get the correct file.

ie, download the exe and the match 7z.

if you think you've already done that attach a screenshot showing both files (names and extensions) and their file sizes.
