Oh wow - so the price has gone up since this morning, I was afraid of that.   Still I guess with the $10 GC it’s only $59.00.   I’ll keep watch on it.

Hi Marilyn, I just saw your post…don’t know if this helps but this is what some of the upgrades are and what I thought about them. I have been using PSE 2020 for about two months. I upgraded after I got my laptop back in October. So far, no problems with my system or any upgrades from Microsoft since I installed it.

GUIDED MODE Upgrades

BASICS - OBJECT REMOVAL

I found this easy to use and required less steps than earlier versions.

FUN EDITS - PATTERN BRUSH

This is a fun new edit that might catch your eye.

SPECIAL EDITS - PERFECT PORTRAIT

If you do a lot of portrait work, this feature alone might be worth the upgrade.

EXPERT MODE Upgrades

FILE - ORDER PRINTS - FUJIFILM Prints & Gifts

You can place an order for prints straight from inside Elements.

ENHANCE - COLORIZE PHOTO

If you have a lot of black and white photos and you just want to quickly add color and you are not picky about accuracy, this would be a great feature.

ENHANCE - SMOOTH SKIN

This new feature is probably my favorite. It is accurate, and it can save you time.

SELECT - SUBJECT

You can achieve the same results in earlier versions.

Linda, thanks SO much for typing this all out and sharing such great information, it’s very helpful!  It sounds like PSE 20 is good and I’m happy to hear you haven’t had any problems and although I have a Mac, but hopefully that won’t be an issue.    I’m glad to know you have this version for when I start to install and use it.  Last time I upgraded Jody walked me through the whole thing, I might call on you for advice when I decide to install.      THANKS again!
