Re: Photoshop Won 39;t Install On Windows 10

I have tried to install Photoshop CC (Trial Version) 3 times. I get the error "Installation Failed - Learn More". When I click on that it says "Installation completed though some optional components failed to install correctly. (6)" If I click learn more I get this.
I'm having the same issue, the cc 2014 installation fails. I read at least 4-5 people having the same issue which indicates, starting "windows" in safe mode and doing a bunch of registry checks is just a waste of time. Which one is more likely?
Same issue. Different people are getting stuck on different programs. Seems pretty random. I got Photoshop, Illustrator and After Effects without a problem. Get the error on InDesign and Premiere. Trying for 2 days.
I had this error but when I quit Adobe Creative Cloud and restarted it, all my 2014 apps were now marked properly installed. I tried running them and so far, no problems. I want to know if this works for anyone else.
Same issues here. Photoshop installed fine, but the others gave me the same error. However, I was able to launch InDesign and Illustrator without a problem. Acrobat Pro doesn't appear to have installed though. Still waiting on Premiere Pro. I'm a new customer, so this is kind of frustrating!
i tried the last 3 days to install photoshop with the client for windows, and it failed everytime. I read in the internet you can start windows in safety mode with network connection by pressing F8 when you turn on the computer. I did it and started my pc with safety mode. after log in in my computer i opened the creative cloud app and can install the photoshop 2020 hope i can help everyone to get photoshop to run in windows 10.
It worked after I installed the Font Installer and uninstall Figma from the other windows user. Then I closed and reopen Figma. Not sure whether the second step was necessary or I just needed to switch out from my windows account.
Late June of 2022, Photoshop suddenly went cray-cray. The screen was freezing up, showing the opening screen behind my artboard. The whole program would freeze up requiring the good old CTRL+ALT+DEL. When I relaunched Photoshop (PS) I got this error:

Thank you so much for this post. I have had the same problems, both with the graphics and trying to find helpful answers on the forums. When I saw your error screenshot that looked exactly like mine it was such a great feeling. Your fix instructions solved everything for me
I have been using photoshop 2023 for a while with no issues. I think I have the standard intel graphics card on windows 10. I opened it today as I usually do and then the same sort of error message came up.
OpenCL unavailable
DirectX unavailable
Insufficient VRAM 0MB of 1500MB
OpenGL available
GPU Detected: Unknown GPU (UNKNOWN)
What a mystery. You know, I vaguely remember a message popping up somewhere saying PS was discontinuing 3D features in future releases. Maybe the 3D filters are broken because those features were stripped from the program?
Here are some helpful instructions for you Windows 10 users. I had a really hard time trying to figure this out and since Canon doesn't want to write proper instructions on how to install this software I did the job for them. So here it is. Let me know if you have any problems.
-Once installed go to the MODULE folder where you installed the plug-in.
-once the module folder is opened scroll down and look for PSETUP or PSETUP2 file.
-Click either file to run the plug-in installer
-After you click next you will need to select a folder inside Adobe Lightroom (the MODULE Folder) to install the plug-in to.
-Once you select the folder then select Lightroom under the Compatible Application section then hit next.
-Exit once complete.
-Now open Lightroom and test. (you must have a catalog open to see if this works)
-click on file then select Plug-ins, then you should see the canon studio pro option.
-Open to make sure it works.
-Start the plug-in software from the previous location.
-If you are installing only for Photoshop, once you download the software install the Plug-in in the ADOBE photoshop folder.
-Once the software is installed open the folder location where it was installed then scroll down to the file name PSETUP or PSETUP2
-Click on PSETUP or 2, when the software asks for the specific location for the plug click the browse button.
-Find the Photoshop folder inside the ADOBE folder, then select the PLUG-IN folder then click select.
-When you get back to the main selection, select photoshop, then hit next and you're done.
I want to make this clear first by saying that i have never tried Photoshop on Wine but in years my Wine can play games can execute almost any software and many thing due to the good configuration that i have made and of course the changes that the community made over the years, so with this in mind you can try to configure your Wine according to mine.
Note: If you installed the new version of Wine open your file manager and choose to view hidden folders and go to directory /home/yourusername/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32 and make a shortcut of the file " winecfg.exe" on your desktop or run it from terminal by typing winecfg
Tip: Remember to backup your .wine folder from directory /home/yourusername so you don't need to do all this everytime, also you can use the folder for feature use and also for sharing with other users.
Most of the things we use daily fall into one of two categories: ownership or rental. While both models come with their advantages and disadvantages, many lean towards ownership as it tends to be more clear what can be expected from such a transaction. With rental, you never truly own what you are renting, and as such, the terms can always be changed by the company. In an example of having the worst of both worlds, computer software you own can still often need to "phone home" and be activated on a server to work. The problem with requiring a server for your program to run is that you are at the mercy of the owner of the server for things to always work. This is exactly where users of Adobe's Creative Suite 2, 3, and 4 find themselves, as Adobe has said the activation servers for those particular versions had to be retired. This means users will no longer be able to use a piece of software they originally paid for if they ever have to reinstall it.
While I appreciate many will say a program that is more than 10 years old has had its day, why should any piece of software that still works suddenly cease to function just because a company no longer wants to run a server? The cynic in me feels like Adobe has no motivation to help this group of users as they have already had their money during the original purchase. There may only be a small group of users holding on to these older versions of Photoshop, but they should still be able to use the program they bought for as long as they want. I have an old laptop with Photoshop CS4 on it, which I very occasionally use when out in the field. This version of the editor is still more than useable for my needs, and it would be a shame to lose it. For those asking why I don't just upgrade that particular computer, my hands are rather tied, as additional hardware and a newer operating system would also need to be installed for the Adobe Suite to work on it. Unfortunately, that machine has already reached its limitations in terms of upgrades. This means if this machine ever needs my version of Photoshop CS4 reinstalled on it, I wouldn't be able to.
If you want to hang onto Creative Suite 2, 3, or 4, the good news is if you already have it working on your machine, you won't have any issues until you need to reinstall it. This means if you decide to wipe your computer, change your operating system, or do a clean install of the software, you will run into trouble as you will no longer be able to access the activation servers that are needed to finish the new installation.
The only real option available to ensure your older version of Photoshop will always work is if you clone the drives you currently have in your machine. This procedure is fairly straightforward and the costs are not too excessive. The cloning of drives is not a bad habit to get into anyway, as it gives you another backup of your precious data. By making copies of your drives while they have functioning versions of your Adobe programs, you'll always have the ability to "rewind" back to that point in time and never need to "phone home" to Adobe. For those unfamiliar with the cloning of drives, this video is a great starting point to familiarize yourself with the process.
To give Adobe credit, the company has offered offline activation in the past for users who can't access the Internet on a particular machine. By logging into Adobe on a device that can connect to the Internet, you can fill in a form and generate a response code, which will help you finish the installation process. The big question is if Adobe will still give response codes to users of the older Creative Suite 2, 3, or 4 which they have now retired the activation servers for. I have asked this very question twice to Adobe but have yet to receive an answer. I would personally file this option in the long-shot category, as there's no guarantee this approach currently works and even less chance of it working in several years' time.
So, there you have it: the incredibly limited number of options available to you when it comes to keeping your older versions of Photoshop alive. While I obviously am sympathetic to companies who have to consider the costs involved to indefinitely run close to antiquated servers, no paying customer should ever be left with a piece of functioning software they can no longer use. In the case of Adobe, there must be a cost-effective solution that would allow users of older versions of Creative Suite to keep using them indefinitely. During my time researching this issue, I've not been filled with confidence that a solution is available. If there is one, it isn't being communicated or broadcast clearly and understandably on their site or when reaching out to Adobe direct.
