Cannot update Premiere Elements

New Here ,

I'm trying to update Premiere Elements to the latest version. When I close the program and try to install the update I get the message 'Couldn't start Update Manager. Retry after some time'

I've been getting this message for a couple of days now. It's followed by 'There is no application set to open the URL auphd://update?sapCode=PRE&baseVersion=19.0&platform=osx10-64&skipUpdateinfo=true.'

I'm running on a 2020 IMac under BigSur. 

Many thanks

I'm having similar challenge.  When I open Premiere Elements it gives me a screen for update.  Nothing happens when I click on the button and my computer locks.   I've had to use the Task Manager to kill it.   I'm doing a complete uninstall and reinstall from a fresh download.

I've had the same problem. I clicked to install on exit which meant I could actually use the program, but it still crashes when you exit

I'm on Windows 10.  There was not a specific error message.  I simply locked up the entire PC.  That's rare for me!

 

A complete uninstall with fresh install file put me on todays release of Elements 2021.1, Build: 20210127.daily.2235820.  It is working fine again.

Hmm... I bought the disc from Amazon, so going to my registration and order history does NOT show a download link for the update

 

I haven't tried to update from within the program, and now I think I will put that off for awhile

The update process locked my Windows 10 computer.   I got it unlocked with the Windows Task Manager (Ctrl+Alt+Del).   

 

Once unlocked, I  rebooted and uninstalled my existing version of PrE 2021.  Then I downloaded a fresh installation from https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/premiere-elements-downloads.html?promoid=D4P81Y6G&mv=oth...

 

Launching the installation put the newest "updated" version on my computer.  When opened it asked for the serial number.   I entered it and all is back to normal operation including the update.

Probably no help but my PE 2021 installation (on WIN10) updated without issue 2 days ago when I started the tool.

Took about 10 minutes & then I had "Version 19.0" (which puzzled me as I would have expected 19.1) followed by "(20210127.daily.2235820)" which does appear to be the latest update.

Application is operating normally.

Medha,

 

I ran the log file creator this morning.  I cleared up the problem with a reinstall yesterday so would the data you need be there?  If so, where would you like me to send the file?

"Probably no help but my PE 2021 installation (on WIN10) updated without issue 2 days ago.."

 

That's good news.  Must be something screwy on my computer that made it balk.  It took a few extra steps, but mine is working well now.

>downloaded a fresh installation from

 

Hmm... I did that, and I'm thinking about running that installer (after I make a backup in case of a problem) instead of even trying to do the update from within the program

 

I've never done a full 'replace on top of' install before, so I hope that idea works

I tried the update again yesterday and it worked! No change to any software my end so maybe the missing URL has now been fixed.

Thanks
