I have been trying to install my fully-paid Photoshop Elements 2021 for 2 days.  Text help was inable to help and now won't respond.  Is there a way to receive a refund from Adobe since this product is now unusable?

Do you get any error messages? If yes, please post the exact message.

Which operating system do you use?

 

My System: Intel i7-8700K - 64GB RAM - NVidia Geforce RTX 3060 - Windows 11 Pro 25H2 -- LR-Classic 15 - Photoshop 27 - Nik Collection 8 - PureRAW 5 - Topaz Photo

No error message. After I enter my name and password it just shakes.
I use Mac OS Big Sur, v 11.3

That shaking dialogue box is your Mac operating system asking for your local administrator username and password - usually the one you use to log in to your Mac - in order to continue the installation of the software. Nothing to do with Adobe.

 

I suspect that you are entering your Adobe ID and password which is not what your operating system is asking for, hence the box is shaking.

 

On a separate note, it's also time to update Big Sur. The current version is 11.6.

Does your system meet the min-requirements to run PSE 2021?
