Photoshop Elements 11 supports up to Camera RAW 7.4, which is what your Nikon D7100 NEF files require.

PSE 11 comes with Camera RAW 7.1 installed, so you need to update Camera RAW to 7.4.

Thanks Peru Bob

 

I am not at home at the moment and so haven't looked to see how easy/difficult it is to find/update to Raw 7.4.  Is it easy to find?

 

Thanks again for taking the time to respond to my issue.

 

Best wishes

What @Peru Bob said.

 

NEF is a family of file formats for Nikon cameras. Each NEF file is unique to each Nikon model.

So, to answer your question, we need to know which Nikon model your NEF files come from.

 

That said, Elements 11 is 10 years old. So, if you're using a recent model Nikon, it's likely not supported by the Elements 11 Raw plugin. However, you can convert to DNG and open the DNG file in Elements 11.

Hope that helps
