Or you can contact Support by telephone using the numbers listed here: https://helpx.adobe.com/contact/phone.html

 

Of course, I don't want to dissuade you from updating Elements to the 2022 version if you choose to do so.

Thanks for responding so quickly. I think I'll run with your suggestion to reach out to Elements Support first before I try anything myself. Again, thanks heaps.
