Update to Camera RAW in Elements 2020

[acoleman121]

Hi

I currently use Elements 2020 which i find pretty useful but i have now started using a Canon R6 which produces CR.3 files which Camera RAW doesn't support and i would like to know if it is possible to update Camera RAW so that i can use Elements. I realise 2021 & 2022 supports CR.3 but im satisfied with 2020 and to be honest i dont see much difference between 2020 & 2022 and have just downloaded the 2022 trial and have deleted it after a few edits etc as i really dont think much to it. (I really would like to see a better UI for a change)  

Hope fully there is a way to update C RAW to be able to use CR.3 files other than more expense in buying the newer versions although if that is the case i think it's time for a different software brand im afraid 

Any help will be gratefully received  (Current C RAW version 12.0.0.32)

Go here FIRST, download, and install the version of 13.4 you need.

Thanks.  This worked for Windows PSE 2020 also.  Have to be sure to follow instruction to replace in version 18, not versions 20.
