I want to import my Photoshop Elements Catalog to Lightroom. And I go to File - Import a Photoshop Elements Catalog. But when I press this, nothing happens. Absolutly nothing. No new windows is popping up as discribed. I have tried to restart Lightroom, I have restarted PC, I have uninstalled Lightroom and installed again. I have tried as administrator. None of this helps. I have Windows 10 22H2. Plenty of harddrivespace and memory. So how can I get this menuchoice work?

As far as I can see this information is for Lightroom CC and not for Classic.

The limitation is that only pictures from Photoshop Elements 6 through Elements 13 can be imported.

With help from Adobe, the problem is solved. PSE 2021 catalog is now imported to LRC. But there is a bug in LRC, that prevent it from importing from PSE 2021 directly. First, you have to rename PSE 2021 catalog to something else, then install PSE 13 and make a PSE 13 Catalpog. LRC find that catalog imidiatly, but there is also an upportunity to browse elsewhere. And now you can choose PSE 2021 Catalog and import starts. Everything will be converted to LRC.

Things to try

Unsupported Photoshop Elements catalog version. Please update to the latest version of Photoshop Elements before moving your catalog to Lightroom.

Currently, only catalogs from Photoshop Elements 2019 or later can be migrated to Lightroom. If you see this error, install the latest version and open your catalog to upgrade it. You can then quit Elements Organizer and rerun the migration in Lightroom.

Update to the latest version of Lightroom.
Verify that you have opened Elements Organizer at least once on your system.
Re-create the Preferences files for both Elements Organizer and Lightroom (Mac OS only)
