I've just bought the Adobe Master Collection CS5 for Mac.

I've downloaded the software but when I try to start the installation, it doesn't work.

Is there any incompatibility with the M1 cpu?

There's any other way to install the software?

Thanks for your help.

Correct answer AxelMatt

CS5 [is not] compatible with the newer version of MacOS and the M1 cpu.

No one is legitimately selling any of the Creative Suites anymore. It's probable you've been scammed. If I were you, I'd keep an eye on the credit card you used to pay for the software.
