Incompability concerns with Windows 8.1.

Hello,

 

I've been having concerns with the Creative Cloud programs of not being compatible with Windows 8.1. I'll be buying the plan again, as I would begin a remote job very soon. 

 

I've been hearing many stories of how the software isn't compatible with Windows 8.1 anymore, and need to upgrade to Windows 10 in order to get them working. To be clearly honest, I cannot really afford to upgrade the Operating System right now.

 

If that's the case, is there anything I can do to help me overcome this situation? Because I'll need them shortly for my job next week. 

 

Note: I haven't bought any plans just yet. It's something I want to ask before I purchase them again. Also to narrow it down, I mainly use Photoshop and Illustrator for my Graphic Design work. The versions I had earlier in the previous plan was CC 2018. The reason why the plan was cancelled, because I had problems keeping up with the monthly payments back then.

 

Kind regards,

 

- Sherif
