Steps to follow for How to Install Photoshop Actions:

STEP 1. OPEN THE ACTION PANEL IN PHOTOSHOP

To load your actions in Photoshop, the first thing you will need to do is locate your Action Panel.  Open Photoshop and go to the “Window” tab in the top menu bar.  Then click on “Actions” in the dropdown.  Your action panel will pop out.

STEP 2. CLICK ON THE MENU ICON

Once your Action Panel is open, go to the top, right-hand corner of the Action Panel and go ahead with click on the menu icon (small icon that looking like 4 vertical lines).

STEP 3. SCROLL DOWN & CLICK ON LOAD ACTIONS

When the menu drops down, click on the Load Actions option to open up a file navigator.

STEP 4. NAVIGATE TO YOUR ACTIONS FILE

Navigate to the location on your computer where you downloaded or saved your actions (.atn files).
