I have CS6 (disks) and need to purchase a new computer which has windows 11 on it. Will CS 6 work on Windows 11?  If not, do I have any options to make it run smoothly?  I do not want to get the cloud version of CS as its too expensive for me being on a fixed income.

Two ideas that MAY work to install and/or run old programs in Windows 10 (and MAYBE Windows 11 ?)
-RIGHT click the program icon or EXE and select a compatibility mode in the pop up option window
-and/or select Run as Administrator to assign FULL Windows permissions
-also https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/create-local-administrator-account-windows.html

CS6 isn't officially released for Windows 11. It can be worked fine or not. This differs from machine to machine. I've read several posts of users which got CS6 to work with Win 11 and also post in which user wrote that they have problems.

You have to check it of your own.
