Adobe Photodeluxe Business Edition Win10 x64 20170814

Adobe Photodeluxe Business Edition v1.1 Win10 64-bit
_________________________________________________________________________________

use the 'Install PDBE raa' batch file installer to install adobe photodeluxe
business edition, right click and run as administrator. the batch file also
has an uninstall option.

photodeluxe business edition is a quick and capable photo editor from 1999.
the layers capability is great for creating an assembly of photos.
the PDD files it creates can be opened with photoshop and photoshop elements.

essentially the contents of the folders 'KPCMS', 'Program Files', 'PSFONTS',
'Windows' and the photodeluxe shortcut in 'Start Tiles' need to be copied to
their respective locations. some insignificant functions of photodeluxe are
unavailable since it is such an old program with 16-bit applications and this
installer is a very lite version, and some, such as the business card maker,
require the original install disc to be loaded. the original 'HP Scanjet 5300C
disc with Photodeluxe Business Edition' is available as a torrent for
downloading. the original disc program will only work in 32-bit versions of
windows, and might require some compatibility settings before it runs correctly.

you will also need the original disc if you want to change the 'licensed to:'
information. copy the PBE.EXE after installing the original 32-bit program
from the HP disc, if you have it, into 'Adobe Photodeluxe Business Edition
Win 10 x64\Program Files\PhotoDeluxe BE 1.1', it will retain your user
registration.

or you can use PE Explorer to change the licensing information, leave a space
after the name and serial entries. open the PBE.EXE file with PE Explorer, and
in the task bar select the four-colored diamond shaped icon, 'resource
viewer/editor'. select 'string' and double-click the 630 entry, you can edit
the name and serial there. save the PBE.EXE when you're done, you might want
to check the 'section headers' icon and 'recalculate section headers', it's the
little calculator icon.

if there is an issue with photodeluxe not recognizing file extensions after a
screen capture, try copying an image opened in photodeluxe to the clipboard to
replace the screen capture. basically open a photo, click it or select an area,
then press ctrl+c, or right click and copy. the batch file installer will copy
a string to the clipboard while installing, that should clear the 'PrtScn'
clipboard info if it happens to exist.

note: the installer should work in both 32-bit and 64-bit windows
it might also likely work in previous versions of windows
i've specified win10 64-bit for its intended compatibility
