    You posted in the Photoshop Elements forum.

    Are you asking about Photoshop Elements?

    Keep in mind that v12 is a 32 bit application. If you have a new W11 computer, even if you can install the software, running it could cause system problems. It is recommended you create a Windows System Restore point before trying.

    I tried to install pse 2010 on a new win 11 computer--   what a disaster!  I ended up using a restore point to reset to just before I installed it.   It’s nothing I’m losing any sleep over- I have versions, 12,14,15,16,17,18,19,20,22,24,25, and 26 to play with. 

    I use all those old versions to help people mostly- I do miss the pretty colored icons used in pse 2014 though.

    What is the problem you are experiencing?  Have you looked in the products page of your Adobe account.  A download should be available for your registered Elements 12 program.
