Included with all of the CS packages. Any of Adobe's programs than can add extensions would need this app to help manage them. As you can see from my screenshot, many of Adobe's programs permit extensions.

An extension is an add-on to your program. Let me give you an example. All of AlienSkin Software's programs can be used as an extension in Photoshop. Meaning they can be opened in Photoshop as if they were actually part of PS.

No, not just any program. A program must be specifically designed as an extension to work with Adobe programs. The developer will specify if their program can be used as an extension to work with Adobe. AlienSkin Software Photo Bundle is a program that can be used as a extension to:

• Adobe Photoshop CS6 or newer
• Adobe Lightroom 5 or newer
• Apple Aperture 3 or later.
