Are you using the current 2021 version?

 

The CEF Helper is part of the Adobe Creative Cloud.  Premiere Elements is not.   Sometimes the Adobe servers get busy.  Try waiting a day or two.  If that doesn't work, try John's suggestion.   "DE-activate" is done in the Help menu by signing out of your account.   

 

Another possibility is to start an online chat session with Adobe technicians:  https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?rghtup=autoOpen

When the update won't work from within the program some people have had to DE-activate to release the serial number, then UN-install

 

Then Download the 'trial' (which is up to date) and enter serial number to activate
