Hello everyone,

I want to reinstall PSE 2020 FRESH on my machine. Before ai do that ai want to make sure EVERYTHING is obliterated including file links, catalogs, preferences, everything.

 

I want to reinstall PSE 2020 as if it's never seen my machine or photos before. 

 

Is there a recommended way to NUKE EVERYTHING from my machine so I can start completely over with a new install, new catalog and everything?

 

Thanks in advance,

Jeff

Dear User,

Thanks for writing to us. Please back up your files, uninstall the product & run our cleaner tool. https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/elements-installation-error-CC-cleaner-tool.html

Hi Jeff,

 

Use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. Note: on the screen that asks "Choose from one of the following options to clean up :", choose 1. All. Then you get a screen that will list all of the Adobe apps including Elements.
