Error 16 Starting Photoshop CS 5 On Win 7 x64

I’ve been using Photoshop CS5 for almost a month now and this morning, when I tried to launch it, I got Error 16 and those 2 error messages.

I clicked OK and got this message???

What is this crap? It worked yesterday!!!!

I did not call or communicate with the technical support at Adobe because from my previous experience, it’s a total waist of time. You can try but you will probably get a generic answer that does not work (from my previous experiences).

It is faster to search on Google and find the solution by yourself.

This is what I did to fix this problem:

• Started Windows Explorer
• Navigated to C:Program Files (x86)Common FilesAdobe
• Created the SLStore folder that was missing

Now, Photoshop CS5 is starting properly! It is strange that the SLStore folder was missing because I had been using Photoshop CS5 for some time now and it was working perfectly! Must have happened in one of the updates.

The important thing is that I can now use it without any error message.
