Adobe Activate Hijacked my PC!

I have the same issue, and I think you are wrong.   I have a 2012 Macbook Pro 15 inch with Parallels running an older copy of Windows XP 32 bit, and the associated programs I transferred from my old PC.  Adobe clearly installs some cookie to make you buy CS whenever you launch their software.  That's fine, if I'm trying to use a CS product.  But I get that message now even with older Adobe software which I installed originally from disk (e.g., Photoshop 6.0), which should not require any Cloud subscription to run.  Also, I'm also getting this message from Adobe every time I try to open any other software from any other companies (e.g., Magix, Sion), which are not  their products, and notlicensed by them.  They basically have hijacked my computer to extort money for services I don't want.   So how are they better than any other unscrupulous, thieving internet pirates out there?  Worst of all, this company has no customer support or help available, by phone or email, unless you become a subscriber and  pay them their blood money for the CS, whether you want it or not.   There must be a file associated with this subscription demand window.  There must be a way to find and delete it.  Somebody must know.  Heeeeellllllppp!!!!
