i am petty sure it is for elements only I was wrong here are the instructions.

To install with Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0:

1. Exit Adobe Premiere Elements.
2. Open My Computer.
3. Double-click Local Disk (C:)
4. Navigate to: (Please read directory carefully)

Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0\Plug-Ins\Common\PSA

5. Move the existing Camera Raw.8bi plug-in to another location (for example, a new folder on your desktop). Ensure you keep this version in case you need to revert back.

6. Copy the Camera Raw plug-in, Camera Raw.8bi, from the download into the same folder as Step 4.

7. Launch Adobe Premiere Elements.

I downloaded and installed ACR 4.3 in both PE5 and Premiere 3 without mishap.

The only thing I do different that the Adobe "Official" instructions is that instead of moving the Old RAW to another site - I just rename it in its folder to "OLD_Camera Raw.8bi"

That way, if problems develop, I can always rename it back and we are just as before. If you move it you have to remember where!

I looked at the Properties>>Attributes on my copy and it was not a read-only file The size was 10,202 KB. I assume you got it from Adobe Here

I would try the download, unzip and copy to correct folders again for both Photoshop Elements and Premier and see if it works out.

Good luck,

That's great! Always best to have the latest software. I tried it out and did not notice any difference in my RAW photos - but at this mature stage you would not expect dramatic changes in the ACR setup - it already works pretty well!

Glad it worked out :D
