I purchased and downloaded Elements 2022 a last week with no bother. I then subscribed to Lightroom/Photoshop and now elements will not work. I get a message to uninstal/re-instal elements but when I do, I get an error code 16 message each time. I have tried about three times now with the same results. Please help.

I think I've managed to find a solution now. Om right clicking the elements desktop icon, and selecting properties, I was able to tick a box making me an administrator which has enabled elements to work normally. Hooray!

I should have also mentioned that I am using Windows 11
