🔺 Start Here: Welcome Overview & Installation
Step 1: Download & Unzip Installation File
Download the installation package (ZIP file) from your Member Account > Downloads tab and unzip it in the Downloads folder (Mac OS) or the root folder of the C: Drive (Win).
IMPORTANT! Be sure to unzip the installation file (.CCX) and run it from the same drive where Adobe Photoshop and Creative Cloud App are installed on your computer. Typically, this is the C: drive for Windows PC or the Macintosh HD for Mac. Adobe will only allow the CCX installation file to search for programs in the same directory where the file is currently located.
Step 2: Double-Click the CCX File
Double-click the Pixel_Juggler_[version].CCX installation file to open up your Adobe Creative Cloud > Manage Plugins Dashboard.
The first option will notify you that the panel is a non-marketplace plugin. Press Install.
This only means that the Plugin is not from the Adobe Marketplace and your current installation makes the panel accessible on the current computer only, meaning you will need to install it on the other computers separately. Your license allows installing each RA Panel on 2 computers following the same installation steps.
📌 Please contact support if you need to use your RA Panel on more computers.
Attention! Troubleshooting
If you happen to encounter any installation issues, please check Installation Troubleshooting. Please note that the most common installation issue that our users have encountered is with their Creative Cloud app – it may either require an update or simply to be relaunched before you begin installing the new RA UXP Panels.
Step 3: Install RA Panel Plugin
Press Ok to the standard third-party developer notification for all plugins that are not presented on the Adobe Marketplace.
Step 4: Open Adobe Photoshop
Click Open Photoshop. The panel should appear in Photoshop by default, but if you do not see it right away, you will find it under the Plugins menu.
Step 5: Activate Your License
In Adobe Photoshop, enter the email address from your RA Lab account and press Ok to activate your RA Panel Software Product License.
You will find the new UXP panels in Photoshop under the Plugins menu.

Our Tip: Placement On Smaller Screens
When traveling or working on a smaller screen we recommend stacking the RA Panels one behind the other for your convenience, so you can flip through them when needed (pictured on the left).
And on large screens, you can place the MUA and Beauty Retouch panels one behind the other at the top of the screen, and the Pixel Juggler underneath the two in the lower half of the screen.
Happy Retouching!
