I had my Windows 10 computer formatted and re-loaded Windows 10 Tuesday. I just now re-loaded PSE 2020 and got that done with no problems. After PSE has been open for just a few seconds it is saying there is a new update. I click on it to Install now. It works away for just a few seconds but then I get an error saying "Update Conflict" I have a choice of "QUIT" or "CONTINUE" I click on Continue but again after a few seconds get the same error. Now I decide to Power down the computer and restart hoping that will fix the problem, but it does not fix the problem. All I can do now is hit Quit. Has anyone else had this problem? Thank you for any help you can give me!!!  |

Sepiana, Thank you! The updating is happening right now as i type this!! Another question you answered for me on an older version of PSE. How can I bypass the "normal" opening screen and go right to PSE Editor? Also I never use the Organizer. Anything special I need to do for that ??  |

I just messed up. I saw the updating screen, and I was thinking I was looking at my screen shot I grabbed with the Snipping Tool so I closed it, THEN I realized "Hey you BIG Dummy! That was updating!!"
How do I get it back to updating? I am pretty sure it was not yet at 100%
I looked under "Help" but did not see anything to restart it....

Go to Help>Updates. If it is activated, just click on it. If it is grayed out, try closing Elements and opening it.

How can I bypass the "normal" opening screen and go right to PSE Editor? You need to create a shortcut to the Editor. 1. Go to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 2020\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe 2. Right-click on the PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe file. 3. Select "Send to > Desktop (create shortcut)". |

This is a change Adobe introduced back in PSE 2019. Help>Updates will remain disabled (grayed out) if an update is not available; it will automatically get enabled whenever an update is released. |

Charles, you are most welcome! Glad to hear it worked. Also I never use the Organizer. Anything special I need to do for that ?? Sorry! I forgot to answer this question. No, you don't have to do anything. |
