Photoshop CS 2018 installed twice - keep or not?

I am cleaning up space on my computer and it shows Adobe Photoshop CS 2018 is installed twice (one version from 6/1/2018 and one from 10/12/2018), should I keep both? I have had the Adobe Cloud (with Photoshop) for about 2 years.

It also shows Lightroom, Lightroom CC and Lightroom Classic CC (all from 6/1/2018), I have Lightroom CC and Lightroom Classic CC on my cloud. Do I need to keep the Lighroom file?

I attach a screenshot of the apps on my computer.

Thank you!

I just updated to the latest version of Photoshop CC 2019 and tagged the option to remove old version while updating to the new.

In my Creative Cloud panel it shows just Photoshop CC.

In my Windows Apps overview it shows both Photoshop CC 2018 (from June) and Photoshop 2019 (today). Before that it showed two versions of Photoshop CC 2018 (one from June and one from October).

Can I remove the 2018 version?

Here is the screenshot of both Windows App list and Creative Cloud, should that help:

Thank you!


yes, you can uninstall ps cc 2018 and ps cc 2019 should continue to work.

no, you don't need to keep versions you don't use.

Uninstall or remove Creative Cloud apps

But how about the Photoshop CS 2018? I use that quite often and I do not want to mess up anything. It shows it installed twice on two different days. Should I just keep the newest version? Thank you!

do both versions show up in your cc desktop app?

if so, uninstall the older one.

if not, do you have windows and do both installs show up in your control panel?
