Installer error despite supported Photoshop version« Back to Questions List

I have Photoshop CC 14.2 which is supposed to be supported by the CS6 installation - however when I run the zxp file for CS6 it gives me an error that "this extension cannot be installed. It requires Photoshop in the range 13 to 14.9". Is there a fix / workaround? Thanks

CC2015 Users

Please read our Install Guide for CC2015: //exportkit.com/answers/install-problem-cc-2015-i-do-not-see-the-extension. Extension Manager CC has reached its End-of-life and Adobe will no longer support this – you can easily fix this issue!

Correct Answer

Thanks to another user we were able to track down the root of this issue.

You can install CS5 or CS6 versions of Export Kit on your system. The problem you have is that you are using Extension Manager CS6 to install a CC extension.

Solution

Open Extension Manager CC (Or the version of Adobe you you wish to install) and install the plugin normally.

Extension Manager CC

If you do not have Extension Manager CC, you can download it from Adobe: //exportkit.com/external/adobe.com/extension-manager-cc

Reason

If you double click an Adobe extension – it will load the default (last installed/used) manager, in your case CS6 – where you wanted CC.

This can happen for CS5 also.
