I recently upgraded to Photoshop Elements 2025 for Mac. In doing so, I lost the ability to use the Metaraw Plugin that fixes chromatic aberration. My question is: do you know of a plugin for Elements 2025 that will defringe chromatic aberration? I can't believe Adobe has never put this feature into Camera Raw when using Elements - so frustrating!!!

There is a very reasonably priced plug-in that will do the job.

But, it's not too difficult to remove chromatic aberation using other techniques. Here is one:

Create a duplicate layer
Add a Gaussian Blur sufficient to remove the aberation. (Your magnified example required a high degree of blur).
Change the blend mode to Color
Create a mask, if necessary, to bring back any of the photo's color that has been removed by the blend mode.
