    Ricardol81848965 you will want to contact whoever provided you with the current installation files you are using.  They will have an updated installation package available for you.

    Ricardol81848965 what version of Photoshop are you attempting to open?  If you are opening Photoshop CC then what type of a Creative Cloud membership do you have?

    Ok thanks for the update Ricardol81848965.  Please contact your plan administrator.  From the description of your error the installed licensing files have expired.  Your administrator will have new licensing files to provide for you.
