What folder can I install Photoshop CS2 to?

**MrBiggz** · 12-29-2007

Greetings!

I'm trying to install Photoshop CS2 and the installer fires up and tells me

	Quote:
	The folder you have selected is invalid. Please select another folder to install %s.

Is it safe to install a x86 program in the x64 program files?

Adobe is just setting up an installation folder first. Choose a location other than x86 such as C: or even better desktop. Then go to that folder and click setup and it will install. Then choose x86 as the program install location.

This does not work. I make a folder named Temp on the C drive and went from there since the install doesn't like Windows (x86) path. Well it installed PS in the Temp folder period!

I think I'm going to just have to create a folder named Photoshop and go from there.

Probably won't be until this weekend. So if somebody has a hot idea .. I'm game!!

Check if CS2 is compatibile with Vista.... CS3 has been out for a while now.

I'll sit on a stack or religous documents and swear that I tried this install as administrator. I know I did.

I did it again .. and it went! I ono y .. but it did!

Thanks for ur help fellow forum folks!

HAHA sometimes it takes a few tries but good to know it's set up.
I now have CS3 and it's working fine

I had the same problem, so all i did was to make another folder in the adobe folder and titled it photoshop CS2 then chose that folder when i got the message, no problems. It keeps all adobe products budled together
