I have albums in Elements 10 on my iMac which has been upgraded to Catalina OS which does not run Elements 10. If I install Elements 2021 onto my iMac, can I recover my albums from Elements 10?

Albums are just lists of files (like playlists) stored in your catalog. If your photo files and your catalog folder have not been changed in your computer when the OS has been updated, your simply open the catalog manager in the menu file of the organizer and click the button 'convert'. This will enable reading the old catalog from PSE2021 and creating a new catalog in the correct 2021 database format for the organizer. Your albums, tags etc will be recovered.
