Recently installed Vista Ultimate and now when I try to open Photoshop CS I get the following message.

"Current user account does not have the privileges to perform product activation.

Run this application from a user account with administration privileges or contact your system administrator."

How do I fix this?

Right click on the application icon and choose ‘run as administrator’ the first time you run it. After that it should work OK.

Are you running from the same account you installed PS from, and does the account have admin privilege?
