Adobe Photoshop Elements 5 box

Adobe Photoshop Elements 5.0 is the fifth major version of the Photoshop Elements application for consumers, released only for Microsoft Windows. It was also available in a bundle with Premiere Elements 3.0 in 2006.

End of support[]

On December 15, 2012, activation servers for Adobe Creative Suite 2 applications were shut down, which also affected Photoshop Elements 4.0 and 5.0. Registered users who wished to continue using Photoshop Elements 5.0 after that date could download a new installer from Adobe with a new serial number that could be activated without contacting a server.[1] Some users and websites had interpreted that Adobe was giving CS2 applications away for free, but Adobe clarified that these were only for registered users and began requiring a valid existing serial number to access downloads.[2][3] In May 2019, Adobe stopped providing the downloads entirely.[4]
