Just updated, now have 2 versions of everything

I just updated photoshop, premiere, and after effects (the only apps I use), and now I have 2018 versions along side 2019 versions. I don't have much disk space and I don't want to mess anything up either. How does one uninstall the older versions in favor of the new versions without messing anything up?

Open the Creative Cloud Desktop app and go to the list with the installed apps. There you'll find to versions of the appropriate apps. Click on the little arrow beside the button "Open" and the on "Manage". Then click on "Uninstall".

This is quite strange. What about all the plugins installed in the previous version?

Can´t understand why do they do it this way. Is taking disk space and slowing your computer...

What do you don't understand?

To keep the older versions is in several cases very usefull. One example: you work on a large project with other teams. Very often when you open a project in a updated version it will be converted and can't be edited in the older versions. If the other tweam doesn't installed the appropriate update you can't work together.

If the older version is kept you can finished the projet in this version.

Taking disk space is right but slow down the computer happens in least cases.
