Upgrade from Photohop Elements 8 to latest version

Report · Jul 24, 2017

Hi,

I am replacing my notebook which still runs a Photoshop Elements 8 version.

Now I want to buy an upgrade of this version 8 to the latest version and want to directly install it on my new notebook.

Is that possible even if version 8 never has been installed to the new notebook?

How can it be done?

Any help is appreciated.Thank you!

Best regards

Christian

I would not bother with upgrading. You then need two sets of serial numbers if you ever have to reinstall.

Shop around. You'll often find the full version available for cheaper than the upgrade version.

Adobe is running a promotion on the full version of Elements for $69.99

Hi Christian,

Thanks for reaching out to us.

PSE versions are standalone applications and can be used independent of each other on different systems. Also multiple versions can co-exist on the same system.

Is that possible even if version 8 never has been installed to the new notebook?

Yes it is possible.
