Transferring Adobe CS6 to new computer

I have Adobe CS6 Suite installed on my home computer.  It is a older Windows 7 machine that Microsoft cannot upgrade to Windows 10.  They are offering a good deal with a Windows 10 machine.  The problem is the Adobe CS6 Suites for Educators.  I installed them from CDs - it is not a Creative Cloud version.

I don't want Creative Cloud because I go away for long periods of time that I do not have internet access. 

How can I transfer my version of CS6 to a new laptop?

    You need to install using installation files... your CDs should suffice, unless you have no disc drive available - the serial number from the discs will be needed in any case.  If you need to download the installation files you can find them thru the links provided below.  Your license allows you to have two activated installations, so if you would like to retain the Windows 7 installation as a backup (at least until you are sure the new install works), you can.

    You can also download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.

    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.
