Updating Elements from version 8

[hollyoakhill]

Hello,

I'm writing on behalf of my granpa who uses Elements Version 8, but says that the display UI is too small for him to use. I did some searching around and saw that Version 13 seems to have an option where you can enlarge this, making it much more accessible for him.

However, attempting to update his Version of Elements hasn't worked, and I'm hesistant to download anything from Adobe's website as the only options seems to be Version 9 (which doesnt have the UI Upgrade) or just buying the latest Version.

Does anybody have any ideas how to best solve this?

Thanks.

PSEv.8 is no longer supported by Adobe. My suggestion is for you download the free, fully functioning 30-day trial of PSEv.15 (the current version). If this is satisfactory, you can purchase the license subsequently.
