Need a download link to ACR 12.2.1. (Previous Version)

Obviously, there is a lot of regret in downgrading to 12.3. Currently, the only available older versions start at 11, which isn't very useful for new camera owners.

Hi All,

 

We're sorry for all the trouble after the latest update of Camera Raw. Our engineering team currently working on the fix. In the meanwhile, you can revert to the previous version of Camera Raw 12.2.1: https://helpx.adobe.com/camera-raw/kb/camera-raw-plug-in-installer.html#12_x

 

Thanks,

Mohit

I had to reinstall the previous version, I do not want that new update ever and how can I prevent it from updating automatically (only the Camera Raw).

 I think that when you downgrade to an earlier version auto-update is disabled - that seems to have happened with mine anyway.

Hi all,

Aha, I'm not the only one, who doesn't like the latest update.

I really didn't like that interface from Camera Raw 12.3.

I could easely download CR 12.2.1 and install it.

Does this mean I shouldn't upgrade CR anymore in the futere?

I changed my settings in Adobe's Creative Cloud for it.

Damn Adobe!

You have got that all wrong. I looked at the new Camera Raw, played with it for a while, understand it, and as usual got tired of it. Still prefer Lightroom Classic. I'm not defending Camera Raw. I'm just saying that Adobe has said they are "fixing" it. What that consists of, I don't know. And frankly, I don't care. Something is going to change, and it will be released when it's ready and then the complaints can start again. If you want to keep complaining, I guess that is your right. But it's really rather pointless.

Enough already! I think Adobe has heard enough complaints. An Adobe employee has indicated in this thread more than once that a fix is in the works. Your voice has been heard. A link has been provided to go back to the previous version. Go back to that version if you want and wait for the fix. At this point, what else can you expect? Really?

You have previously said that you like the UI change and obviously it looks like you are trying to limit the complaints about that change. We pay for the software and we have as much right to complain as you have to defend the change

Thanks Mohit Goyal for the downgrade link. I hope that Adobe listens the their loyal customers, and at least give us the option to revert to the V12_2_1 Interface in future updates.

It seriously needs fixing!

Legitimate questions per this latest release: 

  • What user testing does Adobe do?  Who's involved, and is there a testing requirements checklist?
  • Does Adobe have software usability guidelines/requirements?
  • Does Adobe have staff fully trained in accessibility/ADA compliance?

This isn't about a changing interface (I can deal with change); this is about having a usable interface.

Like most things today, it probably bypasses the quality control and is rushed out into the shops because the almighty $$$ matters more.

Also downgrade Bridge to 10.0.4 and the madness that is biased towards lightroom users has gone and harmony is restored

I was able to download Camera Raw 12..2.1. Raw files don't show up as thumbnails in Bridge 10.1 anymore, but everything works fine in Bridge 9.1. I can live with that.
