I looked at that discussion, and I agree with the person with the same problem I have. It's PE 2022 that changed. Right clicking on the PE taskbar does nothing. If iI could set it to autohide I could see the entirety of the toolbox. Moving the windows taskbar doesn't help. It's the PE taskbar that is in the way. How can I downgrade to PE 2021??

Reinstal it from your Adobe Account if you bought it as a direst download or from the 2021 installers if you have kept them. You can keep both apps at the same time, they are independent.
Sounds like the answer is no, since I do not own PE 2021. Either way, I've ended up with a product that has a defect, even though you guys don't think so. I'd suggest you get your development team together and figure out how to fix the problem. I'm sure that are a lot more users out there that are dealing with the same issue.

Just have a look at all complaints active in this forum. Yes, it's very enlightening to read many posts in this forum as we, volunteers, are doing.
By far, most are from users of High resolution displays on small displays. The interface is displayed in full but you need a magnifying glass to be able to read the correctly formed fonts... which you can't read.
You are totally wrong when you say "your development team".
We are not Adobe, we are only users like you. The development team have nothing to say in that matter, they have to work in the direction of the marketing. And there, the difference between what you think and what is important is that:
- Those who complain about the necessity to work with less than 800 pixels in heigth are not only a tiny minority, but they are soon disappearing. Those who work with high resolution displays with small surface displays are growing exponentially.
- Adobe marketing has all the tools to verify the above trends.
- Adobe has to compare the cost of creating a really scalable interface (or several different interfaces depending on your hardware) and the effect of such a change on the sales volume. There, you can have valid arguments, but remember that even if marketing urges for taking your complaint into account, the financial powers will have the last word. You need really convincing arguments.
My own experience is that the race towards ultra high resolution is stupid when you can no longer see the difference in normal (and ergonomic setup situations) without a magnifying glass. Editing and organizing require more than a small laptop display. You need a decent sized display of HD (1920 x1080 pixels) at normal viewing distance. You should not have to 'zoom' with your feet. You should be able to switch instantly from full view to 100%. Higher resolution is a burden to your hardware and slows down your workflow without any editing advantage. I would never pay for more resolution than I can see comfortably. However, I do know that the marketing has to follow the trend, and offer solutions for the growing market share of ultra HD users. What is important for me is that they manage to still live economically and offer me the 'standard' HD offer. I have several computers meeting my above needs, and I also have a couple with old computers using old TV displays; some with HDMI and HD, another with barely 800 pixels resolution in height. That's enough in case of need, but really, that's under 'minimal system requirements'.
Actually i do very much agree with you that it is a defect in photoshop elements 2022.
Even at the stated required minimum screen resolution of 1280x800 display resolution (at 100% scale factor) the toolbox color chips stll are not fully visible.
