Should of added:  Had Elements 2020 with this problem and thought upgrade to 2023 might sort it, but no. Saw a post that sufgested repair of catalogue may be the solution, but no difference.  I'm in UK and cannot find an Adobe support phone number or find a CHAT option. Have run with administrator privalages but not the solution. Looking at services but not an expert.  Recently un-installed Adobe Genuine Service (completely erroneously), could this be the problem? Cannot find where to download for re-installation.
