Hi, Well this is my first posting on msfn.

I would like describe u all how to make a Adobe Photoshop CS2 Lite Version, i.e, No Adobe Bridge, Adobe Stock Photography and Adobe Help Center.

-> Copy the contents of the photoshop CS2 to folder (Say C:\PS9).
-> Make an administrative Installation of the photoshop
-> fire a cmd prompt & type msiexec /a "adobe photoshop CS2.msi"
-> follow the onscreen instructions and choose the network directory as C:\PS9Lite or something you wish)
-> The setup will install the necessary files.
-> Now Copy the Adobe Common Files folder to the C:\PS9Lite folder.
-> From PS9Lite run the adobe photoshop CS2.msi or whatever msi file exist there.
-> the installation will give an error as cannot copy the file photoshop.cer, just ignore it, no problem. (in the msi file the path to the photoshop.cer there is a space included, u have to remove it in order to avoid the above error)
-> after the setup is complete, fire up the photoshop cs2 shortcut from the startmenu.
-> you will notice that no helpcenter, bridge, stock photography will be installed.

hope this method will workout for many.

Well, u have to use the following syntax:
msiexec /a "adobe photoshop cs2.msi" from the original photoshop cs2 folder.
the above statement will make an administrative installation of photoshop only.

ok.... I created C:\PS9. Copied the diskcontent to that folder.

hit cmd--> typed: msiexec /a Adobe Photoshop cs2.msi
Still the same message. When hit OK nothing happens.

msiexec /a C:\PS9\adobe photoshop cs2.msi gives the same message.

just run the following command in the command prompt under the photoshopcs2 folder
msiexec /a helpcenter.msi and follow the instructions

or

just run the helpcenter.msi file under adobe photoshop cs2\help or \helpcenter
that will do the rest.

Gosh! I came to too late to this thread to make a lite version of Photoshop CS2. Anyway, is it possible that I manually uninstall Help Center, Bridge and Stock Photography? Will it render my Photoshop CS2 unusable? Thanks
