Gigapixel is not compatible with Photoshop Elements

The plugin automatically install to Photoshop (1) and is accessible from here:

Automatically creates a new layer on top of your work named Topaz Gigapixel layer

Allows upscaling and cropping on the file

 The plugin supports a maximum image size of 30,000 pixels on the longest side.

- 

: Photoshop Actions are not supported. They will have inconsistent behavior and any issues setting up these Actions to work with Topaz Gigapixel are not supported. 

- 

: Photoshop Smart filters and Smart Objects workflow with Topaz Gigapixel are not supported. Make sure to send a flattened layer to Topaz Gigapixel to be supported, and not a Smart Object or Smart Filter. 

- 

: A double-plugin workflow, example LRC > PS > Topaz Gigapixel is not a supported workflow. It will use significant memory and will have inconsistent behavior. 

- 

: If you apply a crop in Photoshop, make sure to enable the "Delete Cropped Pixels" option. Preserving the extra pixels can cause export issues when the file is sent to TopazGigapixel. Alternatively, you can edit the full image in Topaz Gigapixel, then perform the crop after the file is returned to Photoshop. At that point, you can preserve the extra pixels if needed.

 On Mac, using Photoshop with the "Open as Rosetta" toggle is not supported and will cause plugin issues. To disable this, quit Photoshop, find the application in the Finder, right-click (or Control-click) it, select "Get Info," and uncheck the "Open using Rosetta" box. This allows Photoshop to run natively on Apple Silicon, rather than using the Intel simulation. If for Adobe compatibility reasons you need to keep the Rosetta checkmark on, we would not be able to support any plugin issues. You can still use Topaz Gigapixel as a standalone, from Finder > Applications > Topaz Gigapixel, import files directly in Topaz Gigapixel, export then use the exported files into PS.
