How do I get my .exe file for windows design standard 6 (non-cloud version)? When I follow download instructions I get the 2 gig .7z file but nothing to extract it with and apparently there is supposed to be a 2nd file that is an .exe. How do I get that 2nd file?

    Download & Install instructions https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2003339 may help

    -includes a link to go to a page to download Adobe programs if you don't have a disc or drive

    -you will need to enter your original serial number during install for non-Cloud programs

    -or kglad links in reply #1 here https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2081216 may help

    Thanks for trying to help John.  But little of the information applies when that download process ends before I get the set-up.exe file.

    Download Creative Suite 6 applications


    Clearly show 2 of 2 files for Windows English International verision.  However each time I run this download link I only get 1 or 2 files -- the .7z and not the .exe

    It would be nice if Adobe itemized the 2 files with separate URLs. Then a person could be sure what is and isn't working.


    Other ideas?

    Wait!

    Now it might be working!  Perhaps 3rd attempt is the charm?  I can see that I'm getting the exe file this time.
