Seems odd that Adobe emails me product offers for a product I don't have licensed....


I just looked this up and saw on another thread that manually changing the extension from psdt to psd lets the template open as an image in earlier versions of Photoshop. Can you try that in Elements and report back?

Rename the file type “.psdt” to “.psd” (expl : “product.psdt” to “product.psd”)

Hit enter → and “Ok”

I will work perfectly fine.

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 2018 Running on Windows 10. 

Downloaded from Adobe Stock

Free stock graphic design and motion graphic templates | Adobe Stock

Its the Photoshop collage layouts.  I'm totally new to the Photoshop family but consider myself to be pretty computer literate. its proving to be a learning curve for me!

Thanks!

A Photoshop template can be opened (and used) only in Photoshop.

I tried that.

I get "Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document"

Will a .psdt file not open in Elements? I just downloaded it from the site and its just a pretty simple collage file.

Ah Elements. I don't use Elements but I'll move your post to the Photoshop Elements forum so hopefully you will get a quick answer
