Bridge won't stay open

Hi all!

I bought and installed Photoshop CS2, Indesign CS2 more than a year ago. All are genuine Adobe products, duly registered. I was working on Photoshop and Bridge in the morning and everything worked fine. Then, in the afternoon, I bought and installed Adobe Premiere Element. I installed Premiere and worked on a film.

After supper, I tried to get back to my work on Photoshop. As soon as I clicked on Bridge, It started opening and I got a flag stating: "Adobe Bridge cannot be used at this time because of licensing restrictions. You must have installed and launched at least one other application to use Adobe Bridge." See screen:

Photoshop was open at the time. I tried with Indesign with the same results. I re-booted, yet same. Finally, I went to Adobe and downloaded AdobeBridge_1.0.4_updater.exe. It won't even open for installation.

Funny thing. Before, I could open Bridge *alone* without any problem.

Any idea? Thanks,

Marcel.

Hi again!
Thanks again for the address. I did a serch and never found it. I'm shying away from the first choice which I find very "iffy" ;-) I'm going to try the second solution (installing Photoshop on a second computer).
However, I cannot identify "the licence folder". Would you know how to identify it?
Thanks,
Marcel
