Map not displayed in Photoshop Elements Organizer 2021

Hi,

I cannot see the map anymore when clicking the "Location" tab. It used to work. I am also not able to add a location by clicking "Add location". Reinstalling the software didn't fix the issue. What's wrong here?

Ok, that's strange, as the latest update only appears to affect the Editor and not the Organizer. This lends me to think that maybe the problem lies with a Windows system file that the Organizer is relying on rather than anything in the Organizer itself (which is why the System File Checker solution worked first-time round).

 

Have you tried changing your Country/Region Selection in the Organizer to United States?

 

Edit > Preferences > Country/Region Selection


Yes, I tried to change the country/region, but the issue still occurs.

 

Since I have many photos to manage, I gave up working with Adobe Organizer and chose Windows Explorer/IrfanView as an alternative instead. Works fine and without dependence on the map.

 

Adobe Organizer isn't only buggy in some things, but also slow despite of a fast CPU and 16 GB of memory.

Problem resolved. It was a Windows issue. Fixed it with SFC.
