Recovering files from earlier version of PSE?

[Veermer]

Hello again

I understand when I install my latest version of PSE 15 the content of the organizer from my previous version (11) will be available.

But the problem is, when I installed PSE 11 I inherited the organizer from PSE 5 (which I still have installed), and subsequently deleted quite a few files from the organizer of PSE11.

So, I have many files on version PSE 5 I would like on PSE 15, is this possible to do?

Thank you

The catalogs for Elements 5 and before were Microsoft Access databases, not Sqlite like PSE6 and newer.

You'll need to follow the steps described on this paper:

Convert-organizer-catalog-elements-13-64

particularly that paragraph

Converting catalogs from Photoshop Elements 5 or earlier to Photoshop Elements 14 or later

Michael, thanks for your early reply, Am awaiting delivery of PSE15 and after installing it will follow the instructions you have given me.
