Question

Can I work with RAW files in Elements 2023 that were taken with my OM 1 Mark II?

Many are telling me I should be shooting in RAW but I have found no evidence that Photoshop Elements 2023 supports my camera, OM 1 Mark II?? If not, would 2024 support it or is there another program I might be able to get as a plugin to 2023 Elements?

You may need to reboot your computer, if you have not done so already.  I have also seen some odd things happen with Camera Raw files after a recent Windows update.  I don't think it is supposed to be required, but if you installed Camera Raw from the Editor's Help menu, try installing also from the Organizer's Help menu.

I have rebooted, I have tried installing from Organizer menu. I get the same error message.

If in the PSE 2023 Editor you go to Help>About Plug-in and click on Camera Raw , what version does it say?

Version 14.4.0.1121

oce you install ACR (Adobe Camera Raw) when you open a raw file , you are actually working on a copy of the raw file, it's called non destructive editing, which means the original raw file remains untouched.

So, like Mr. Arola said, I just need to download the Camera Raw and I can then edit my RAW OM 1 Mark II files?

Yes, your camera only requires ACR 9.2 or greater, follow his instructions and you will be good.

Looks like PSE 2023 should support your OM 1 Mark II raw files if you install Camera Raw by going to Help>Install Camera Raw from within the PSE 2023 Editor.

Well, I got it installed ok but when I try to download a RAW file it is saying "The file is damaged or is in a format that cannot be included in Elements Organizer. "  I would note that it says it is an ORF file.
