Any idea why this error is occurring?

    Hi Terry,

    Really sorry that you're facing this issue. In order to investigate this, we would need some logs from your machine.

    I have shared two files with you on Dropbox (Dropbox - DebugLogs_SmartTags.zip and Dropbox - werwindows7.zip   )

    Can you please download this and follow the below steps, to get us detailed logs for debugging-

    0. Close Elements 15 Organizer.

    1. Unzip the two files and run the .reg file with Admin permissions one by one.

    2. Launch Elements 15 Organizer and wait for ElementsSmartTag.exe to crash.

    3. Now, please share the following two files with us, via Dropbox (Have shared a folder Dropbox - Terry Brown )-

         > Log file present at ---- C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Elements Smart Tag Agent\15.0\Logs\

         > Dump file present at ----- C:\DumpStore\

    Looking forward to resolving this with your help.

    Thanks

    Thanks Terry.

    Is your current logged user not an administrator?

    When you installed PSE15, were you logged in as administrator or other user?

    Thanks
