Have decided to upgrade from PSE 9 to PSE 2018 for no other reason except to get ACR update for my .orf files from Olympus gear. I'm tired of having to first go to the Adobe DNG converter. I have downloaded a trial version of PSE 2018 and have successfully been able to add my Topaz plug-ins into PSE 2018. However, I'm having no luck adding my NIK plug-ins. Can someone provide me with guidance. Lastly, will I be able to access both the Topaz and NIK plug-ins. Seems PSE 2018 only allows me to select one folder in the "Preferences > Plug-ins". Thanks for the help.

How did you try adding the NIK Colllection to PSE 2018? I had no problems adding it to two copies of PSE 2018. Did you run the installer? Or did you just copy the "Google" folder from PSE 9 to PSE 2018?

Hi Sepiana,
I copy/pasted the "Google" folder from PSE 9 to PSE 2018. After I did that my Topaz plug-ins disappeared from PSE 2018 with no NIK software.

Hi zman, this may explain what happened.
PSE 9 is a 32-bit program; PSE 2018 is a 64-bit program. Plug-ins installed in PSE 9 are 32-bit; they won't work in PSE 2018. In the case of the plug-ins you are talking about, just run the installer. The installer is designed to install both 32- and 64-bit versions of these plug-ins.

zman,
I am back here because I was thinking about this . . .
Do you have any plug-ins to install in PSE 2018 which are not self-installers? The ones which just come with an .8bf file? If so, check to see if your download included a 64-bit version. If not, try the plug-in's website.
