I have an old CD of ELements 10 with the serial number. But my new computer does not have a CD drive. How can I install Elements 10 on my new computer?

If it were me, I would not attempt installing a version of anything that is as old as version 10.   You can get an external CD drive for about $25 USD or less.  But, parts may not work.  Version 10 was written to an operating system long replaced.   Some of the optional "support files" have been removed from Adobe servers long ago.  If you are an occasional video maker, your new operating system will have a simple video editor built in. 

If you are interested in a current version, consider the free trial first.

Version WHAT?

Photoshop Elements has a different forum, this is if Premiere Elements

 

Find out for yourself if your (unknown) version will work

Two ideas that MAY work to install and/or run old programs in Windows 10 or 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
