impossible to install photoshop 5 on windows 11 Solved

Question

Hello. I have an HP Pavilion laptop 15. No CD drive. with Windows 11. I copied the contents of an Adobe Photoshop 5LE CD onto a USB flash drive. When I try to install it using the USB drive, I get an error message saying that the program cannot be installed. I was able to do the installation under Windows 10 before, but from the CD on another computer that had a CD drive. Is the blockage due to the file on the USB or an incompatibility with Windows 11?

Hello,  We don't know anything yet, it's still to be determined whether it is compatible with Windows 11 or if there is a lock checking for the physical presence of the CD.  In this latter case, create an ISO and mount it in Windows 11.

Hello,  A screenshot of the error message would be welcome.

Swift14 · Answer

Thank you for your responses. Quite complicated for me. I'm going to take a look at your links. As for capturing the message, I can't, I deleted the file from the USB drive due to lack of success.

Swift14 · Answer

Apparently, according to Adobe, Photoshop may have issues with Windows 11.

fabul · Answer

You could have bypassed the blockage if it were Windows with Compatibility Administrator from Windows ADK  https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/get-started/adk-install  https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/it-pro/windows-10/deployment/compatibility/compatibility-administrator-users-guide  It doesn't mean it would have worked well, but it would have been installable to at least test.

For those who are interested, here is the error message. I get the same one after trying with an iso image. Do I only have the virtual machine as a solution now?

Swift14 · Answer

I downloaded and launched the installation of Windows ADK. Problem: I can't find it on the desktop, in the taskbar, or in the installed programs. Stupid question: where is it?

fabul · Answer

Start menu > All Programs > Windows Kits

fabul · Answer

Start the Compatibility Administrator program  Go to Applications  > Photoshop 5.0 and 5.5  Right-click on Photoshop.exe on the right > Disable Entry  Do the same for setup.exe > Disable Entry  Do the same for the other Photoshop 5 installation files present  _INS0432._MP  _ins5576._mp

fabul · Answer

Then to launch Photoshop via its .exe or shortcut, you will probably need to use right-click > Properties > Compatibility  Run in compatibility mode for Windows 10 (or earlier).

Swift14 · Answer

Sorry, I didn't understand how to launch Photoshop.

Swift14 · Answer

I may have done something wrong. I'll try again later. Thank you.

Swift14 · Answer

I started over but unfortunately it's not working. Here's a screenshot of the last step. Is there an error?

fabul · Answer

Otherwise, I've noticed that there is a 32-bit Compatibility Administrator and a 64-bit Compatibility Administrator; I don't know what else to add, sorry.  PS: We can use the Search option (.exe or any other file that might be blocked)

fabul · Answer

It would be possible to virtualize it, VirtualBox, or VMWARE.  With virtual Windows XP, Vista, or Win7, it should be compatible.

Swift14 · Answer

Right now I have no idea at all. And I'm not tempted by the idea of installing multiple operating systems on my computer. I think I need to look into a freeware without much conviction.

Swift14 · Answer

Indeed, some articles say that you need to access the BIOS to enable virtualization. Is that necessary?

Swift14 · Answer

To respond to pistouri, unless I'm mistaken, the free versions of Photoshop always hide a subscription after a while.

Swift14 · Answer

I still want a free Photoshop link just to check. As for the virtual machine, I think I'm going to give up for now, I'm not managing it. Thank you for your help.

pistouri · Answer

Hello everyone, With W10 or W11, Microsoft has tightened security for installing applications. We can bypass these restrictions to try to install an application.   For that, there are 2 methods.  Method 1: Open Settings =► Apps=►Advanced app settings    Select =►  Anywhere   Method 2: Open Settings =► System ==► Developer mode   Activate the box ''Developer mode'' in a blue highlight. Click ==►Yes    For the requester Swift14, try to install the setup normally first (left click); if that fails, install the setup in compatibility mode second, or if that fails, install the setup as an administrator with the right click third. Or do not install the setup from the USB stick, but copy and paste the folder to the Desktop and follow one of the procedures mentioned.

Swift14 · Answer

Hello. After changing the settings; I just tried these three methods from the USB drive and from the PC. Sometimes I get the previously mentioned error message, sometimes nothing happens.

Swift14 · Answer

Yes, very good! I installed portable Photoshop, it looks like what I had but newer of course. However, do I still have to run it as an administrator to open it?

pistouri · Answer

Hi,  However, do you always have to run it as an administrator to open it?  Since it's a portable software for photos, there are no other options available. For this software (not with the paid version, of course). It's not easy to get this portable application for free. And to get back to this application specifically, an "help" option is available.    After a certain period of using portable photoshop, feedback on the CCM forum would be helpful. This is for future users.

Good. Thanks to Pistouri and to everyone who helped me find a solution.
