What are PhotoshopElementsLive.exe Error Messages?


PhotoshopElementsLive.exe Runtime Errors

Runtime errors are Adobe Photoshop Elements errors that occur during "runtime". Runtime is pretty self-explanatory; it means that these EXE errors are triggered when PhotoshopElementsLive.exe is attempted to be loaded either when Adobe Photoshop Elements is starting up, or in some cases already running. Runtime errors are the most common form of EXE error you will encounter using Adobe Photoshop Elements.

In most cases, PhotoshopElementsLive.exe runtime errors occurring while the program is running will result in the program terminating abnormally. Most of these PhotoshopElementsLive.exe error messages mean that Adobe Photoshop Elements was either unable to locate this file on startup, or the file is corrupt, resulting in a prematurely-aborted startup process. Generally, Adobe Photoshop Elements will be unable to start without resolving these errors.

Some of the most common PhotoshopElementsLive.exe errors include:
