How did my program disappear?

Question

I had Adobe Photoshop CS for over 4 months and it was on here yesterday and now it's gone. I've searched for it, I looked in my recycle bin, and I didn't uninstall it. What could have happened? There was no trial ..

Answer 1

When you say you've searched for it- did you look in C:\Program Files\Adobe\

?

Answer 2

Do you only have one user account?  Could you have installed it for only one user account?

Answer 3

Is it possible just the icon is gone from your desktop?

Go to Start, Programs and see if you see your software. Or go to Start, Control Panel, add/remove programs and view the list for it.

If nobody has access to your computer except you, and you didn't uninstall it, then it sounds to me like just the icon is missing from the desktop for some reason.

Answer 4

I think the program executable is named cs.exe so click on start/run/type in the bax cs.exe then press enter. If it is installed, it should start up.

If so then also open windows explorer(my computer) click on Tools/Folder Options/View/Un-Select Hide extensions for known file types/click OK/

Then/right click on the c: drive/search/search for cs.exe/when it shows up in the window/right click it/select send to desktop as shortcut/ then you will have a shortcut to the program you can use to start the program up with.

If it does not find the cs.exe, then it's probably been un-installed.

Answer 5

Start>Control Panel>Installed Programs

If it is not there send me an Email so I might help you....And try to restart
