Whenever I click on Phototshop Help (CS5) I get an error message stating "This installation of this application is damaged. Try re-installing or contacting the publisher for assistance" In the upper left hand corner of this message is the name Adobe AIR.
What is throwing me is that I am getting the exact same message when I try to get help on Lightroom 3, which is causing me to think that the source of the error is not really directly related to either program - hence my reluctance to uninstall & reinstall. Other than this problem both programs are operating in a perfectly norma manner.
Any thoughts or suggestions greatly appreciated.
Thanks!!

Hi jerryb,
Thanks so much for finding that link for me. Among the solutions I began with the easiest, which was to just delete and then update AIR. And voila! Both PS5 & LR3 are working as they should. While I am still a bit perplexed as to the cause the bottom line is that all is well. Again, many thanks!!
