Cannot Open Elements 5

Peter,

What version of windows are you using?

Has the pse 5 organizer been working?

5.0 was released about 17 years ago.   I can't get 5.0 to even install.   You are in for a tough time to get organizer to respond--- it was designed for windows OS's that have not been supported / discontinued for years. 

Here is a link to the latest version:  https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements/try-elements.html?utm_campaign=cv-nwmp-ae2023&utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&utm_content=AE2022-Sitelink-08&utm_term=adobe%20elements%20download&gad=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjwmtGjBhDhARIsAEqfDEe3YnaSAMitP54KDP56Dm7_kBOuWS-Edz601UnLaOzUpSuDgrioKAgaAn3IEALw_wcB

More about the difficulties you face:
On December 15, 2012, activation servers for Adobe Creative Suite 2 applications were shut down, which also affected Photoshop Elements 4.0 and 5.0. Registered users who wished to continue using Photoshop Elements 5.0 after that date could download a new installer from Adobe with a new serial number that could be activated without contacting a server.

Some users and websites had interpreted that Adobe was giving CS2 applications away for free, but Adobe clarified that these were only for registered users and began requiring a valid existing serial number to access downloads.

In May 2019, Adobe stopped providing the downloads entirely.
