Hi, 

I´ve talked via chat to one of your employees and he told me to ask my question here in the forum:
I would like to be sure, that my Master CS6 Collection perpetual license will stay forever active.

Could you please send me this confirmation to my email-adress? Thanks.

Afterwards I would active the Creative Cloud subscription model, if I´m sure that it won´t deligimate my (paid) CS6 perpetual license.

Best regards

    Not sure why they sent you here. This is a user-to-user forum, and we have no ability here to manage your Adobe licensing or account or email address. Sorry!

     

    Further, if you have any issues with running CS6 after CC has been installed/uninstalled, then see this help page:

    ProDesignTools, good morning.
    Anything other than unlocking the activation , install media issue is outside the scope of customer care support.

    Wasn't it led to the forum for that?

    It doesn't mean there was a problem with authentication in particular.
    However, the request to just send an e-mail according to the title will not be answered by customer care.
    (Emails cannot be sent even in the forum, but the evidence remains as a document, so it was a story to post here)

    " install media issue is outside the scope of customer care support."  Adobe support (or some members of Adobe support) sends people who want installers to the forum. This is absolutely wrong. The forum has no special knowledge or secret supply of installers. Unless they expect a forum user to share an installer, which would of course be a serious violation of the license.

     

    Adobe should supply installers, or say they are not available. To send people here is deeply insulting.

    OM39, good evening.
    To supplement Test_Screen_Name's answer,
    The CS, CS2, and CS3 activation servers have been stopped in the past,

    and announcements are made each time, and guidance on remedies is provided.
    Aside from the fact that CS6 can no longer be installed on macOS 10.15,

    whether it can be installed in a PC environment 10 years later is different.

    People could always install it on an old version of windows or on a virtual envirnment, and keep it working, should a windows update break the softwares functionality. But I have't heard of any issues with using CS5 or 6 on windows, and I use it myself without any issues at all.  But people use old software all the time, which is one reason people use windows,  and retro gaming for games that are 30+ years old is common.

    It is known that if you install CC on a system with CS6, that CS6 licensing is changed. If you later remove CC. Or stop subscribing, CS6 will likely no longer work. “forever” is a long time, previous CS releases had the activation server turned off ten years after initial release.
