I hope someone on here can help me. Many thanks if you can.
I currently use Photoshop Elements 8 to do some basic processing of my photos. It came free with a laptop around 10 years ago. I appreciate it's not very sophisticated, but I've found it perfectly adequate for what I do - simple light, shadow and colour adjustments and some sharpening.
I'm now working on a new desktop - the laptop is more or less kaput. I've tried transferring Elements 8 to the new machine by copying all the relevant files across and opening the application (.exe) file. No joy so far. Should this be possible, or does Adobe have a lock to prevent this?
I'd prefer not to purchase a new version if I can avoid it.
Many thanks
Martin.
