My old computer is gone and I do not have any DVD / CD player on my new computer so how can I install Premiere Elements 14 which I bought on a DVD and the serial number is labeled on the DVD disc?

If you have registered your purchase on the adobe site (
https://account.adobe.com/), you can download the program again. If not,
you have to buy an external cd player. Pier Luigi

Buy an external DVD that connects by USB for "about" $25 on Amazon

 

That version is old enough that Adobe does not provide a download

 

That version will NOT install on a new Mac, and it MAY install on Windows 10 or 11

 

Two ideas that MAY work to install and/or run old programs in Windows 10 (and MAYBE Windows 11 ?)
-RIGHT click the program icon or EXE and select a compatibility mode in the pop up option window
-and/or select Run as Administrator to assign FULL Windows permissions

Be aware that many versions of Premiere Elements had mid year updates.  Some also had "extras" that don't install unless needed to preserve disc space on your computer.   Those updates and extras are not likely to be available any more.
