What is Adobe Bridge CS5?

Adobe Bridge is an organizational software application created and released by Adobe Systems as a part of the Adobe Creative Suite. Bridge has many functions such as batch rename and other utilities to help with organization, and supports editing of digital images in Camera Raw format. Organizational features include assigning colored labels or star ratings to images, the ability to edit the XMP and IPTC Information Interchange Model metadata embedded within an image file, and the ability to work with different versions and alternates of a file that is part of an Adobe Version Cue project. Adobe Bridge initially allowed for access to Adobe Stock Photos, an online collection of stock photography images drawn from well-known stock photo houses.

Overview

It adds registry entry for the current user which will allow the program to automatically start each time it is rebooted. The setup package generally installs about 42 files.
