Hello Georges:
I did not find the option to restore images
automatically in PS Elements 9. Vuescan has options to restore
chromatic losses and faded colors, but they were not enough for these
slides, they work better for prints. I worked on each slide using
level and curves for each color channel mainly; I downloaded as
plug-in, from somewhere in the web, a curves tool for PSE, it works
fine.
