Uninstalling older version of Premiere Pro

I have installed Permiere Pro Version 24.1.0. However, the old version - Version 22.6.2 - does not appear amongst my list of installed apps in Creative Cloud so I am unable to uninstall the old version in the normal way (by clicking on the 3 dots and clicking 'uninstall'). In my Applications folder, I can see the old version of Premiere under a folder 'Premiere Pro 2022'. Whilst all my other Adobe app folders contain an 'uninstall' icon in them, this one does not. I would be grateful for any advice as to how to uninstall this old version. 

 

I am running on a iMac, M1 chip, running OS 13.2.1.

 

Thanks

@kglad thanks for all your help with this. In the end Adobe support were able to uninstall via screensharing.

Ok - I tried but I couldn't see the old version listed. When I click on 'install older versions' I only have 2023 versions listed. At the bottom, it has a link to 'Looking for older versions? View more' but there don't seem to be any options to install my version (22.6.2). I am sure I am sure it is easy enough - I just can't find it!

back to the beginning: again, you should use the cc app to install 2022 over your current installation in order to restore its uninstaller.

@kglad your message referred to an 'iobit uninstaller'. I wasn't sure if this was a typo or what it was.

No, I am looking to uninstall version 2022 and have the latest version installed. I uninstalled the 2024 version in the hope that CC would recognise the 22 version I have installed already and give me the option to uninstall.

Yes, no way of using CC to uninstall. Can you please let me know what 'iobit uninstaller' is? Do you mean this? See screenshot. If so, this uninstaller in the application folder is not appearing for some reason...

ouch.

 

then i assume uninstalling 2024 was no help. ie, you still have no wayto use the cc app to reinstall 2022.

 

if true, check the iobit uninstaller.
