I have bought a copy of Lightroom CC Classic that is a "portable" version, ie it does not install in the registry and is "never ending" ie not subscription Apparently it's from portable.com.

Is this a legit/legal version?

Thanks

Thanks - I did - but I though there is lots of info I couldn't see anything directly eg about portable versions never being Adobe authorised. I may have missed it obviously!

using a browser that allows popups and cookies, contact adobe support during pst business hours by clicking here and, when available, click 'chat', http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/service-ccm.html

Apologies - the company is actually portableapps.com not portable.com

Not only is that a hacked version to defeat the license, it MAY contain malware to lurk in the background and steal your information

Thanks for your reply. I believe you may be right but it could yet be that there is an agreement between Adobe and Portable.com that we don't know about.

Is there an official Adobe rep on here that can answer definitevly for Adobe either way?
