Question

Photoshop and InDesign disappeared

I had the small numeral by the Creative Cloud logo so I clicked on it, and the screen saying I had two updates, Photoshop and In Design. I clicked one and it finished updating, then I clicked the other, and it finished updating. I was a little concerned when the boxes for each of them had a notice, "Start Trial". So I tried to open Photoshop, and it gave the option of 7 day free trial or buy it now. I have had and been paying for these and several others in the Creative Cloud Suite for maybe a year now. Nothing was changed to cancel that payment. I believe the updating lost the info that I was a subscriber. In fact I also have Bridge, which wasn't updated, and it still works fine. Any ideas on what happened? Thanks.
