I am getting this message: Cannot load the FastCore Routines module because it does not work with this version of Photoshop

[mkfj57]

The last Windows update crashed my laptop. I had to do a clean install. I downloaded Photoshop Elements 14 & Premier Elements 14 from my Adobe account. However when I start Photoshop Elements it scans for plug-ins for a long time & then I get the following message:

Cannot load the FastCore Routines module because it does not work with this version of Photoshop.

I have Windows version 1903. Can anyone help me with what to do for this please?

This is what comes up under Help, System Info:

[Jeff Arola · Accepted solution]

Yes in the photoshop elements 14 editor go to Edit>Preferences>Plug-Ins, uncheck Additional Plug-Ins Folder and restart the photoshop elements 14 editor.

You have lots of duplicate plugins listed in your System Info.

[mkfj57]

Thank you so much. It started right up after I took those steps. I have one question though, will I need to recheck Additional Plug-Ins Folder again or clean that folder out some way?

[Jeff Arola]

The Additional Plugins Folder was set the C Drive, so it must have been reading the plugins from the premiere elements 14 install and the photoshop elements 14 install causing all the duplicate plugin listings in the system info.

I'd say there is no need or reason to set an additional plugins folder.
