I’ve just spent TWO DAYS trying to install PS3 on my PC. The install seemed to work OK, but when it finished only some of the components were installed. I read all the Adobe KB articles, but still no luck. Finally, I’ve come up with a solution that worked for me. This may be of interest to Photoshop users…

1] Install Microsoft Windows Installer CleanUp Utility from http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301
[2] Run the CS3Clean script from
http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs3clean.html.
Select the [undocumented] level 4 cleanup. This removes ALL Adobe applications.
[3] Turn on User Account Control – may not be necessary, but it is for Adobe Reader!
[4] Copy the Adobe CS3 folder to your HD, right-click Setup and select Run As Administrator
