The only Photoshop Elements that Adobe currently supports with updates is 15. If one purchased a Gold support contract after Jan 2014, then older PE versions under that coverage, are supported for the duration of that contract, according to Adobe in tiny footnote print.
Photoshop Elements 2020 is a better version of an already polished product. There's a stigma with Elements that it is a stripped version of Photoshop. While it doesn't have all the advanced features, you can really do a lot with Photoshop Elements, and with Elements 2020, you can do even more. Re: Photoshop Elements Crash with MacOS High Sierra In reply to Gene J. Paull. Nov 23, 2017 A couple of things to try.
Officially, the system requirements for PE 15 is one of Yosemite, El Capitan, or macOS Sierra. If PE 11 is installed and running, and working properly on these operating systems — then consume a quality beer. The system requirements for PE 11 are OS X 10.6.8 through 10.8.5.
There have been reports where PE 15 installed, but would not run. Apparently, booting into Recovery, and running Disk Utility first aid on the boot drive has fixed this in some cases, recently reported in this Sierra community.
Photoshop Elements For Mac High Sierra Free

Adobe has discovered the compatibility issues listed below with running Photoshop with macOS 10.12 (Sierra).
Adobe strongly recommends that customers update Photoshop 2017 prior to updating to macOS 10.12 (Sierra).
Older versions of Photoshop were not designed, nor extensively tested to run on macOS Sierra. We strongly recommend that customers do their own testing on a non-production partition to ensure that new operating systems work with their current hardware and drivers (printing, etc). You may wish to remain on an older version of the OS that is compatible with prior versions of our software.
If you do encounter issues not already documented, feel free to report them on our feedback site.
| Versions affected | Photoshop CC 2015.5.1 or earlier |

Adobe has discovered the compatibility issues listed below when running Photoshop CC 2015.5 and earlier on macOS 10.12 (Sierra).
Printing in macOS Sierra crashes while printing to some printers and devices
Photoshop would crash while printing on macOS Sierra 10.12.
Solutions:
- Update to macOS 10.12.1
- Update to Photoshop CC 2017
For some printers, ensuring your printer driver is up-to-date will fix stability issues. Note: Just updating the driver may not work. You need to delete the driver, delete the printer, install the latest driver then install the printer. See this document from Apple on troubleshooting printing on OS X: Resolve Printer issues on your Mac.
