    IMORTANT: Save your download link for quick access to future updates.

    There are three separate plugins for TK8: Combo, Cx, and Multi-Mask. Each has
    its own installer in the download folder. Follow the installation directions below for
    whichever modules you want to install. It's fine to install all three. Most people do
    that.

    Also, if you are reinstalling TK8, there is no need to remove the previous version.
    The new modules will overwrite the old ones.

    Installing the TK8 Plugin


    1. Decompress the download folder. It is NOT possible to successfully run the
    installers for TK8 from inside the .zip download folder. My MacBook Air
    decompresses .zip folders automaticallywhen I click on them or open the download
    folder with Finder. On Windows, the following procedure should be used.

    a) Find the "tk8.zip" download folder from where


    it was saved on your computer. Right-click on it
    and choose "Extract All…" from the menu.

    b) In the menu that opens, choose a destination for the extracted files (usually the
    folder that is suggested is fine) making sure that "Show extracted files when
    complete" is checked.

    2. Once the download folder is decompressed, open Photoshop. It's not strictly
    required to open Photoshop when installing the TK8 modules, but doing so will
    make it easy to check that they are installed because they will show up in the upper
    left corner of Photoshop. For Windows users, they show up even if the Photoshop is
    not the active application. On Mac, you'll need to make Photoshop the active
    application in order for the newly installed module to appear.

    3. From the extracted download folder, double-click the .ccx file of the module you
    want to install. The Creative Cloud Desktop app should open. (See the
    "Troubleshooting" section below if this does not happen or if you get an error
    message.)

    4. Click "Install locally" in the "Couldn't verify plugin" window that opens.

    5. Click "OK" in the "Install…" window that opens.

    6. Successful installation will be indicated with a green message in the Creative


    Cloud Desktop app.

    7. If the plugin does not open immediately, click on the Plugins menu in Photoshop
    to locate the plugin you want to open and click on its name.

    8. Set the language. The default language of each module is English. If you prefer
    a different language, click the "TK" button on each module to open the setting
    window. Then choose your language by clicking the appropriate button.

    Troubleshooting

    1. If there is an error when double-clicking the .ccx file:

    a) On Mac, right-click the .ccx file and choose:

    Open With > UnifiedPluginInstallerAgent

    Another alternative is to choose Open With > Other… and then navigate to and
    choose the file at the end of the following path:

    Macintosh HD > Library > Application Support > Adobe > Adobe Desktop
    Common > RemoteComponents > UPI > UnifiedPluginInstallerAgent >
    UnifiedPluginInstallerAgent

    NOTE: If you have trouble finding the Macintosh HD, see the "How to find
    'Macintosh HD' on Apple computers" section on Page 7.

    b) On Windows, right-click the .ccx file and choose "Open with…" In the context
    menu that opens, scroll to the bottom and click "Look for another app on this PC."
    An Explorer window will open. Choose the "UnifiedPluginInstallerAgent.exe" file at
    the end of the path below, and then click "Open."

    C: > Program Files > Common Files > Adobe > Adobe Desktop Common >
    RemoteComponents > UPI > UnifiedPluginInstallerAgent
    >UnifiedPluginInstallerAgent.exe

    2. Make sure the .ccx installer files are located on the same hard drive
    partition where the Photoshop and Creative Cloud Desktop applications are
    installed. This is usually the "C:" drive on Windows and "Macintosh HD" on Mac.
    Installation will not occur properly if the .ccx installer files are on a different hard
    drive or hard drive partition, an external hard drive, or a memory stick/thumb
    drive.

    3. Make sure the .ccx files are NOT still compressed inside the download
    .zip folder. Compressed .ccx files will likely lead to installation failures. Make
    sure the download folder is properly decompressed

    4. Try copying the .ccx files to another location. For Mac and Windows, copy
    the .ccx files directly into the "Downloads" folder. Then try installing them from
    there by double-clicking each of them. On Windows, also try copying the .ccx files
    to the "C:\Temp" folder and then installing from there.

    5. Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop app is not up-to-date. The minimum


    version of the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop app for installing .ccx files is version
    5.4.1.xxx. To find your version, go to the Help > About Creative Cloud menu in the
    Creative Cloud Desktop app. Trying to install .ccx files using an older version will
    result in an error message.

    6. Installation appears to be working but no modules open in Photoshop.


    In the Creative Cloud app, go to File > Exit Creative Cloud to shut it down. Then
    reboot your computer and open the Creative Cloud app again. Then try double-
    clicking a .ccx file and see what happens.

    7. Or simply close Photoshop and then try installing again while


    Photoshop is closed. This has reportedly worked also.

    8. Try rebooting the computer.

    9. Turn off any virtual private network (VPN) that might be running.

    10. Adjust the anti-virus software. Turn it off temporarily or adjust it to allow
    the Creative Cloud Desktop app to make changes to your computer.

    11. On Windows, clear the "Temp" folder. A) Click Windows+R. B) Type


    "temp" in the box that appears and click "OK." C) Empty the folder that opens.
    D) Try installing again, possibly choosing the "UnifiedPluginInstalleAgent.exe"
    program as described above to do the installation.

    12. In some cases, uninstalling and reinstalling the Creative Cloud desktop
    app made installation work. This website tells you how to uninstall the Creative
    Cloud desktop app: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-
    creative-cloud-desktop-app.html.

    Windows users can also try uninstalling using the Control Panel under "Programs
    and Features."

    Once uninstalled, visit the following site to install the Creative Cloud desktop app:
    https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-app-
    download.html

    13. Uninstall/Reinstall Photoshop using the Creative Cloud Desktop app.

    Uninstalling/reinstalling software should be a last resort, but it has been reported to


    work for customers who could not install TK8 using the .ccx files.

    If you continue having problems, please contact me and I'll try to help.

    How to find "Macintosh HD" on


    Apple computers: On Apple
    computers, there is a USER Library and
    a SYSTEM library. The SYSTEM Library
    is harder to find. It is important to start
    at "Macintosh HD" in order to find the
    SYSTEM library. If you do not see the
    "Macintosh HD" listed on your desktop
    or in the Finder sidebar (Apple hides it
    by default), here is how to make it
    visible.

    1. Open Finder.
    2. Click the "Finder" menu at the top
    and select "Preferences".
    3. Click on the "Sidebar" tab.
    4. Under "Devices" click the box to
    place a check mark next to "Hard
    disks" − this puts the "Macintosh
    HD" in the sidebar of the Finder
    window.

    Once you see "Macintosh HD" on the


    Finder sidebar, you should be able to
    click it and see a "Library" folder. This is
    the SYSTEM library and the correct path
    to follow to the "extensions" folder
    where extension panels are installed.

    Macintosh HD > Library > Application


    Support > Adobe > CEP > extensions
