Recently installed Elements 15 on a pc.  Was trying to edit a photo and got this message 3 times:

Photoshop Elements 15 Editor

Photoshop Elements Editor 15 has stopped working.

A problem caused the program to stop working correctly.

Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.

Tried calling help line - referred to adobe.com/getsupport - not able to get ph no or answer.

Can anyone help?

    I've had similar problems. I purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements in December 2020, now its January 2021 and the Photo Editor in the software has stopped working. Been on Adobe site several times and downlaoded again, but still Photo Editor does not work. Adobe site of little use all they want to do is sell you stuff. Probably the best solution is to buy some other photo editing software off another company, which I've done. I will never buy anymore software off Adobe.

    I don't have Web Companion...I am getting frustrated.  I have a trial version, I like it, but I can't buy it if it keeps on quitting.
