Adobe Photoshop Elements 7.0 will install on Windows 11 but it can cause a device driver issue , ‘PX Engine Device Driver for 64-bit Windows’. This error should not be ingored as the PC may well ‘blue screen’ on the nexty start up.
The PX Engine Device Driver, pxhlpa64.sys, is a SONIC/ROXIO DVD burner driver is automatically installed by Adobe Photoshop Elements but it is not required for the program to run. To fix the error go to ‘Windows\System32\Drivers’ and rename pxhlpa64.sys to something else or delete it. To be safe, also check the ‘C:\Program files (x86)\common files\sonic shared; directory and anywhre else you can find it as well.
