Yes, much better than those tick boxes as you can see exactly what is set. Thanks Mike.

I installed the latest QImage Ultimate after using the trial version, which should have included the plugins.

When this installed, it did say that it found Photoshop Elements 2018 and an old Photoshop.

I am using Photoshop Elements and when I go to Files-> Automation Tools, there is not anything there for QImage.
Pertinent screenshots that may help:

I do use plugins with the Photoshop Editor, but these are enabled by Edit-> Preferences-> PlugIns-> Additional Plugins Folder
I did not see anything in the QImage program file directory that looked like plugins.

Could you post a screenshot of the installer screen that shows the status of the plugin installation such as which versions were found (and where)?

Thanks,
Mike

Mike,
I uninstalled and reinstalled QImage Ultimate and apparently it did not install without problems, and actually the same as the first time, just not as I had remembered. 2 problems:

This time pics as attachments because sites and such not cooperating tonight.

In case the attachments are a problem,

Part way thru with the installation, a popup error message window labeled "Quplug-1" had this message:

|-----------------------------------------------------|
|      List index out of Bounds (0)     |
|-----------------------------------------------------|                               

I pressed the OK button, the installation progress bars finished and the following was reported:

|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|        PlugIn Installation                                                                 |

So the old PS CS2 was found but the Photoshop Elements was not found.

Mike,
From the installation log, plugins were installed for Lightroom and Photoshop, but not Elements.

I checked the ...\ddisoftware\Qimage\Plugins directory and there were the plugin installer program and these directories: Export, Lightroom, Photoshop and.

The Photoshop plugins did not work with Elements 2018 by my method of Elements -> Edit -> Preferences -> Plugins -> Plugins -> Choose => directory of shortcuts to plugin directories. I added a Photoshop Plugin shortcut for E:\ProgramData\ddisoftware\Qimage\Plugins\Photoshop

I also ran QUPluginInstaller.exe and got the "List out of Bounds (0)" error window then the:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
PlugIn installation

report. I don't have Lightroom but plugins were installed for Lightroom.

Does QImage Ultimate support plugins for Adobe Elements 2018? All I really need are the Adobe Elements 2018 plugin files and I can put them in appropriate places.

Mike,
Although QImage Ultimate is not showing up as a plugin filter, it is now showing up as and automation tool. That works for me.
