Keep Adobe CS5 Alongside Creative Cloud

Hi,

 

I have a licensed version of CS5. I'm thinking of trying Creative Cloud but want to retain the CS5 that I have installed on my PC. How can I prevent Creative Cloud from overiding CS5 during installation, i.e. not affect CS5? Is there a step that I need to take during the installation of Creative Cloud?

 

Basically, I want to have access to both CS5 and Creative at the same time, and in the event that I cancel Creative Cloud, be able to still use CS5.

 

Thanks in advance for any advice!

 Thank you both for your replies.

I have an external drive. If I move the CS5 program over to it, will it still be affected by any Creative Cloud installation on my PC? Or can it remain isolated?

Adding to what Peru Bob said...

As soon as you install any part of the Cloud, even a trial, it replaces your program management system
-if you plan to keep using a serial number program you should NOT install a Cloud program, not even a trial
-Read Cloud takes over https://community.adobe.com/t5/Get-Started/Get-off-the-cloud/td-p/8075485 for some ideas

I would make a disk image or clone so that I could restore the disk to a time before installing CC.
