When I open Photoshop CS3 on my PC (running Windows XP Pro), I get an error message telling me that the file AdobeXPMFiles.dll cannot be found, and that re-installing Photoshop might fix the problem. I click "OK," and Photoshop opens just fine, and works fine.

What is this missing file? Is it possible to simply re-install the file, or do I really need to re-install all of Photoshop?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Updater run. Same problem.

Re-installed. Same problem.

Adobe Photoshop CS2 still starts after the error message, and seems to work OK. Now when I exit the programme (but not before) I get an error message — the one that asks if I want to send an error message.

The error message talks about ModName: adobeowl.dll and ModVer 1.0.92.0 and offset 00009380 — if these mean anything at all.

Having re-installed and still not solved the problem, any further suggestions would be most appreciated.

Thanks,

Craig

I had the same problem with CS2, reinstalling "Adobe Common File Installer" solved the problem for me.

It’s located in:

— Adobe Creative Suite Installer 1 CD: Adobe Creative Suite 2.0/Adobe Bridge Services folder

OR

— Photoshop CD: Adobe Photoshop CS2/Commonfilesinstaller folder
