I've been using Photoshop Album Starter Edition to store and catalog digital photos for a year or two. About two weeks ago it suddenly stopped opening. Each time I try to open it I get a message that says there is a problem with the 'My Catalog' file. The exact message is below. I've looked through Adobe support and found nothing that worked, though it looks like I'm not the only one with this problem. I tried re-associating the catalog file with Photoshop Album, reintstalling Photoshop Album, and typing a command I didn't understand (suggested in a forum) in the run cmd.
Any suggestions about how to resolve the problem would be appreciated?
Thanks.

Attempt to compact and recover this catalog, then open again?
