Cannot deinstall ps cs4 and bridge cs5 open all files in CS4 instead of Cs5

Dec 16, 2011 3:12 AM

I temporarily could not make the Eastman Kodak ROC Professional plug-in work in my PS CS5 so I tried other programs to use this plug-in in. I therefore installed an old PS Elements 5 and PS CS4 (my present PS CS5 is bougth as an update from CS4) . However now the plug-in works fine in my PS CS5 and I of course prefer to work in this. I have, however,  acquired a new problem: The only way I can open picture files in PS CS5 is via the files menu in Photoshop itself. If I try to open via Bridge (and it is Bridge CS5) I can only open the files in PS CS4.  I cannot deinstall PS CS4. Bridge CS5 states that "open in PS CS4 is the default action".

 

Sorry if this is a foolish question.

    If you using windows it may be your file assoaction settings.  Use Folder Option applet found in the control panel of from the tool menu in File Explorer use Folder Options tab File Types to check that image file like jpg, psd, CR2, tig etc types are associated with CS5 and not CS4 and if not change the assocation to CS5 or camera raw.

    Sorry not to have reacted to the above for so long. Even after doing as you proposed things did not work. In the end I (after the Christmas Holidays) I did reinstall the pc - changed from Vista to windows 7. I do not know what caused the problem initially but at least I think I can conclude that one should not install the cs4 software after having installed cs5. Thank you for your support.
