ok so i have elements 8 and I haven't used it in a long time. So I am trying to open an NEF file from the same camera I have used in the past with this program but it will not open. It would open the file folder and let me select the file i want to open but when I hit open it just disappears as if its about to open the file but never does. Can some one please help me with this?

    Hi,

    Request you to please check that you have installed all application updates from Help > Updates in Photoshop Elements Editor app.

    If not, then please update and try if it works.
