Can someone please tell me where to download a plug in for Elements 2024 that will open webp images?

Also, once I download it, what folder should it be put in to be recognized by PS Elements?

thank you!

Where it says Plugins below the CS6 folder there should be a Elements 24 folder to put the WebPShop.plugin in.

 

 

If it isn't there it's likely that you haven't installed the Camera Raw plugin, by going to Help>Install Camera Raw from within the Photoshop Elements 2024 Editor.

 

 

 

After you get the WebPShop.plugin in the Elements 24 folder you'll probably need to Notarize the plugin by following the directions here by TheDigitalDog

Thank you for your help. I have the same problem with my Mac. No plug-in folder where it should be. I also do not have the option in the Help menu to Install Camera Raw.

B.M.A 35,

 

What version of photopshop elements and macOS are you using?

 

You want to install the WebPShop.plugin?


2024 and the latest macOS (no bêta).

Download the WebPShop_0_4_2_Mac_Universal.zip from here.

https://github.com/webmproject/WebPShop?tab=readme-ov-file

It should then be in your Downloads folder.

 

If the WebPShop_0_4_2_Mac_Universal.zip was not already unzipped when downloading, double click on the

WebPShop_0_4_2_Mac_Universal.zip to get the WebPShop.plugin.

 

Then copy or move the WebPShop.plugin to

Macintosh HD/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Plug-Ins/Elements 24
