Cannot edit Sony Alpha 1 RAW files

I have PSE 2021, Editor version 19.0 (20210304.m.156367) x64, Organiser version 

19.0 (20210126.m.155261). No updates available for either as Update button greyed out. I also have DNG converter 13.2.0.738 (the latest I think).

PSE camera raw is version 13.0 and there seems no way to update it to version 13.2 which should support RAW files from my alpha 1. I have tried the DNG converter on both my desktop and laptop computers and it cannot see any RAW files, even if I change the preferences to compatability with camera raw 13.2 and later. When I change this to 13.2 it reverts to 12.4 when I close and reopen DNG converter.

As far as I can see I will have to wait until PSE 2022 is released, or buy Photoshop which contains much more functionality than I am ever going to use.

Can anybody help?

As you have found out, the Sony A1 requires ACR 13.2.  There is an official workaround that will allow you to install it in Elements 2021.  See this link.

 

How do you like the A1?  It's on my wish list.
