Hi Folks
I have just installed a Plug for Lasersoft Software and have two problems I could use some help with.
1. The plug in has downloaded and installed but I cannot get it to activate at all in CS5.
2. I get the following error message when I start PS5
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

FAQ: How do I capture and post a screen shot or video?
As for the plugin: Does the maker claim it works for Photoshop CS5?
What is its use anyway?

Capture and post screen shot instructions refer to Apple, I use Windows 10.
The makers developed the software as a plug in to use with PS to remove dust and scratches from images which are a constant problem for photographers. If, like me, you are scanning and processing a large amount of digital/film images it is potentially very useful.

I am aware that Adobe and Lasersoft are different companies having used both professionally before I retired. Your statement "It some software the gets install on machine to gather info about you usage of your computer. It is also known to break Photoshop. Its best to remove it from you system." strikes me as somewhat alarmist at best. What evidence do you have that Lasersoft Plugins damage Photoshop? I ask this as I shall be contacting Lasersoft directly for support on this issue. If you have any other information could you post it here? Thank you.

I'm wondering if their plugin is aimed at the recent CC version of the software. Plugins written for CC aren't as likely to work in previous versions of Photoshop.

I have checked re the suitability of the plug in and it is advertised as appropriate for a variety of versions of PS5/6, elements and both CC and in my own standalone installation.
I have sent a screenshot to the company and their support team have escalated it to, presumably, their product development department.
I will post information on the board as soon as I get a reply/fix.
