After much back and forth, I have to let it finally managed to convince me that it's time to upgrade from version 2.0 to version 7.0 of Adobe Photoshop Elements. The version 2.0 was part of the scanning software and fit my purposes fully. And all that I've already done, now works still. That, of course, there are one or the other feature which did not exist until now is nice, but these have not yet been used in the majority. What is striking, however, repeatedly, is the startup, which is much longer now than with the old version. I for one would not necessarily update again because it has been shown to me that my version 2.0 would have been enough for a long time. Therefore, I recommend to think carefully about what you want to do with a program, because just like me, the majority of users not professionals and only use a very small part of the variety of programs. And then usually sufficient an older version.
