Workaround for PSE Installation or Update -- Update OS or Browser

@techtive, have you tried the solution that I have posted with Elements 6, a program that is now 14 years old?  And are you complaining on the Apple and Microsoft websites about those companies' failures to update security for Flash and Internet Explorer which is probably the root cause of why Adobe has had to make some changes of its own?

And I don't think the world has ended.  It's just made a few turns since Elements 6 was introduced.  😉

Hi and good work, thanks for comminicating. It seems that Adopey are not prepared to mention how they have left us in limbo with earlier versions of PS. Mine is v6 nd perfectly good for what I need. Now trying to install on a new computer there is just no response after the finish insatlling. Just left wondering whyt he world has ended. PS Elemants v6 runs perfectly on my previous Win 10 laptop. Must just be the timing window of when Adopey switched off this Flash thing?

So very poor to just turn our apps into coffin fodder.

I was having the same issue to install my PSE 2019 in my new notebook, it worked perfectly, Camera Raw also updated as it should. Thank you so much.

Here is the official Adobe solution to the problem.  Although, it refers to the Creative Cloud suite, it will also work for Elements users.  I expect a webpage customized for Elements will be published soon.

@defaulttyafxhwn7dnu,  your solution has been confirmed by another user.  So thank you for taking the time to post it.  Unfortunately, because you are the OP, I cannot mark your solution as a correct answer but I will point other users with the same problem to your post.

@defaulttyafxhwn7dnu, your analysis of what is happening is above my pay grade.    I am going to bring your post to the attention of Adobe to see if I can get a reaction because we are certainly seeing a number of users with this problem.  In any event, thanks for providing this workaround.
