I have spent hours on the phone with Tech Support who said I would have to ask the forum.

I went through my PC with the Tech and removed all the old CS3 files.

We downloaded the new CS3 and got the new Serial number.

We tried to install several times unsucessfully.

Hope someone can help.

Things have changed since 2017. You can no longer install it.

Hi Alans69640962,

In addition to what Sunil%20Krishnan has suggested, i would recommend you to also take a look at Resolve "temporary activation expired" error for CS3 and Acrobat 8.

Let us know if this helps.

It seems like you have already installed a version before. Better delete all the files related to it: "even from the registry". Then restart the system and continue installing the new.
