Hello, I purchased Adobe Photoshop Elements 15 online, have downloaded and installed.  All looks ok but when I try to launch I see "Adobe Photoshop Elements 15 has stopped working" my only option is to "close program".  I have removed and re-added but that didn't help???  I'm on a Toshiba Skull Candy Laptop, windows 8.

You have probably installed a free Ad-Aware program or downloaded it with some other update. You need to uninstall Lavasoft Software and PSE15 should then work.
