Photoshop Elements 2018/Windows 10 issue
« on: January 29, 2021, 07:12:38 pm »

Edit: Removed my question; I've had enough of abusive and pre-school behavior of one particular individual.
If I could, I would remove the thread, but I can't. Asked Jeremy to lock or remove, but sofar I'm being ignored. Wonderful.

So Adobe provided tech support, none worked, but you think folks here know more about YOUR computer system and an old copy of Elements and have a fix? Just how many LuLa users do you think work in a four version old copy of Elements?
Maybe dust off that copy of Photoshop you said you once had a license for?
UPDATE Elements (it's now up to version 2021)?
Get a Mac?
Downgrade Windows 10 you had (?) to update that hosed your very old copy of Elements which is no less than four major versions old?
Get a much, much bigger display that doesn't flicker and work on postage stamps? ;)
Adobe refused to give you a free copy of anything on sound ground. You're four major versions behind. Elements isn't a subscription, pay for an update like other Elements users who update their systems/hardware:
https://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-elements/buying-guide.html

The damn product cost $99; we'd be better off here getting you a GoFundMe account and send you enough to get a copy and move on in future silence.
You must have saved enough money for an update to Elements by never upgrading to a mirrorless camera due to the concept never proven, that they heat and degraded the image.
Do you recall (well I and some might) your struggles with Elements in the past on PhotoNet** where you cross posed once again?
Maybe it's time to move onto Analog. Analog photography that is.  ;D

Have any of you found permanent fixes other than open as administrator?
Just do this, four mouse clicks and the problem's sorted.

Expecting companies to give free updates to out dated, budget software is pretty naïve.

Just buy the updated software if you like using it. It's extremely cheap anyway and it looks like its even on sale for 70 bucks. If your time is valuable at all, you've spent more time trying to hack your current version / machine settings and asking what you should do when you could have just updated it in seconds.

As suggested here in 1st reply and over on Photonet cross post; don't hold your breath such a logical and simple solution will be considered let alone acted on.

OK Frans, we're all set and you only need a mere $89 to go:
https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-frans-get-elements?utm_source=customer&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_campaign=p_cf+share-flow-1
Then, buy it at $70 and pocket the change towards a camera.  :D
All I ask in return is some day, take or better make a photo and share it.

You better jump on this bud, your GoFundMe isn't getting any love, something I can understand:
