Hello, I bought and installe Photoshop Elements 2023, but it comes with Adobe Elements 2023 Organizer which I do not want, and which keeps doing annoying stuff in the background (and it also crashes all the time).

Can I uninstall it keeping what I actually want, i.e. just Photoshop elements?

I am on MacOS Ventura.

You can trash the organizer without any effect to the editor. I called Adobe and they confirmed this. I am using Mac Sequoia with Elements 2023.

I know nothing about Macs, but I would not advise deleting the Organizer from your machine. You can turn off all the annoying stuff by going to the Edit>Preferences>Media Analysis dialog and unchecking all the boxes. If you are not going to use the Organizer, you can also delete the catalog folder.

Somebody else with Mac knowledge will have to tell you how to delete the program from your computer if you insist on doing so.

Well I have done that but I have a notification popping up from time to time telling me that 'Elements Auto Creations 2023 added items that can be run in the background'. Hateful piece of software if you ask me.
