You need to install pse 9 on your computer.

Running pse 9 from a portable drive won't work.

 

There are too many other files besides the pse 9 program itself that need to be on the actual boot drive.

Thanks Jeff, that is what I am doing. I installed the program onto my new desktop from the portable drive I had saved it on.

Did you use the actual Photoshop Elements 9 installer?

It won't work if you just copy over files.

 

You can download the Photoshop Elements 9 installer from your Adobe account:

Greg, had a chance to try the fixes you suggested. Now I am getting three new messeges . when I click to close one another opens. They are as follows: 

The code execution cannot proceed because ExtendScrip. dll was not found.

 The code execution cannot proceed because aif_ogl.dll was not found.

The code execution cannot proceed because ScCore.dll was not found

The code execution cannot proceed because Face Detector. dll was not found

Any more ideas about the next step?
