    On Catalina OS support for 32-bit apps are not available. If any components of the app is 32-bit , it will not work

    Please refer below link :

    However , you may try updated version Photoshop Elements which is completely 64-bit.

    I believe you need to get a newer version of Photoshop which runs on your 64-bit machine. All you have to do id select the appropriate bit size of your software version.

    Hi

    Photoshop Elements 15 is not compatible with Catalina, you either need to downgrade the MacOS or upgrade to Photoshop Elements 2020
