Why cannot Adobe products open .NEF files from Nikon D300? Bad answers in the past. New updates don't work.

Nikon RAW Codec is a software module that enables you to handle RAW image files (*.NEF: Nikon Electronic Format) under Microsoft� Windows XP SP2 and Microsoft� Windows Vista� with the same ease as JPEG or TIFF images. Go to either the microsoft Vista site or the Nikon USA site to download the software or get Nikon Capture software thats designed for the NEF file.
