Installing PhotoKit Plug-in Modules for Windows

PhotoKit Plug-in Modules are easy to install Automate Plug-in additions to Adobe® Photoshop®. You must have the U.S. or International English version of Photoshop installed in order to automatically install a PhotoKit Plug-in Module. If you are running a non-English version, you will need to manually select the install location. If you downloaded the demo or purchased on-line, the file you received is a compressed file that will need decompression before running the installer.

After decompressing the .zip file, you will have a folder with the items shown below.

IMPORTANT: Before you run the Installer, be sure you quit Photoshop. The plug-in should not be installed in a running version of Photoshop. Launch the PhotoKit Plug-in Module Installer.
