Yes, you can still download the free version of the Nik Collection, or the Nik Collection 2012 as DxO now calls this. &#8230; Here you can enter your email address and DxO will send you a link to free Nik Collection download.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What is included in Nik Collection?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>The DxO Nik Collection consists of eight different plug-ins which are bundled together as a suite. The eight tools in the Nik Collection are Analog Efex Pro, Color Efex Pro, HDR Efex Pro, Silver Efex Pro, Sharpener Pro, Dfine and the most recent plug-in, Perspective Efex.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What is the latest Nik Collection?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>The latest release, Nik Collection 4 by DxO ($149), is refreshed for 2021, with attention paid to streamlining its interface with Adobe creative apps, and newly revamped interfaces for Silver Efex Pro and Viveza.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Can I use Nik collection without Photoshop?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>When you install the Nik Collection to your computer, two versions of the applications are installed. &#8230; You can&#8217;t execute a Nik Plugin file other than inside a host application like Photoshop. These files won&#8217;t help us to run the Nik Collection standalone. We need to use the Nik Collection application files for that.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is Silver Efex Pro free?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Silver Efex Pro is a free plug-in available from the Google Nik Collection. This easy-to-use program offers photographers the opportunity to mimic dark room treatments digitally. It&#8217;s another great plug-in you can use with Corel PaintShop Pro.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Does Nik collection work with Photoshop Elements?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Nik plug-in is not supported by Photoshop Elements.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Where should I put Lightroom plugins?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>To install plug-ins, just place the file with the . lrplugin extension inside the Modules folder and launch Lightroom Classic. When you open the Plug-in Manager you should see each installed plug-in listed on the left.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What is a Lightroom plugin?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Plugins, on the other hand, are software add-ons that allow you to add new features to Lightroom or use other programs through Lightroom. Both presets and plugins add to Adobe Lightroom&#8217;s tools, features and functionality.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Does Lightroom allow plugins?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Not all programs come with the feature or compatibility to support plugins, but fortunately, Lightroom supports the use of plugins and there are some amazing plugins available in the market that are aimed at photographers looking to do more with their photographs from within Lightroom.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Also the question is, does Nik collection work with Lightroom?
