Lightroom 6 showing as Lightroom CC in Creative Cloud

Hi,
I bought a copy of Lightroom 6 in a store a couple of months ago and it has been working on my desktop fine, yesterday I bought a laptop and am now trying to put it onto it but I have put the codes in and everything was looking good but it downloaded Creative Cloud, not Lightroom. I opened Creative Cloud, went to where the programs are, it does list Lightroom but has it as the CC version and not Lightroom 6. It has started doing another download to download Lightroom CC and I don't know if I should let it because I don't want Lightroom CC because I do not want to start paying monthly when I have already bought the program. This seems a bit more complex than I thought it was going to be, something's changed since I did it last time (which does happen often, I'm not always the sharpest on updates).

Is Lightroom 6 still valid? Should I let it download CC?
Thank you.

if you want to use lr 6, install lr 6, not cc.

Download and installation help for Prodesigntools links are listed on most linked pages.  They are critical; especially steps 1, 2 and 3.  If you click a link that does not have those steps listed, open a second window using the Lightroom 3 link to see those 'Important Instructions'.
