Problem Installing Element 6 on Windows 10 pro

Hi,

I got Photoshop element 6  (CD) many years back and got now a new computer with windows 10 pro. Photoshop installs from what I can see but then when I double click on it, it does not open.

I have no error message only that it does not open. Same if I click open with element on a picture.

 

Any clue on what would solve this?

Thanks

Celine

People have reported success in running Elements 6 on Windows 10 after running the Adobe Licensing Repair Tool.

Hi John; 

It sounds like q good idea but when I go to the link and want to download I can not. Would be interesting to know it is restricted to the US !!! I can not find such page on the French site.

I was hoping with your idea I am so desapointed !!! I paid the software and can not use it

Hi Celine,

 

Photoshop Elements 6 might not work with Windows 10 or 11, Please upgarde to the latest version of Elements.

I've moved this from the Using the Community forum (which is the forum for issues using the forums) to the Photoshop Elements forum.
