I still see Fireworks as available on Windows machines that don't have it installed.

Like this Windows 10 laptop with the latest Adobe Creative Cloud Application 6.3.0.207

Someone from Adobe like Jeff Wright would be a good person to ask.

CC Desktop App 6.3.0.207

Windows 10, v 22H2

Did you attempt to install FW?

Did you succeed?

Were you able to launch it?

When I tried, I had to abort installation due to a conflict with other critical apps I use. 🤔 🤔

Like Jeff, Fireworks is listed in the CC app. But last time I attempted the installation I encountered the known hurdles, and I just couldn't be bothered anymore.

So I use a 'portable' version instead to convert the odd FW file now and then.

Odd. I checked and when I turn on older apps in my preferences, Fireworks still pops up in the list of installable apps.

I do not have Fireworks installed via the CC app.

So is it truly discontinued or not?

Newly installed CC Desktop app only supports current Creative Cloud products + one previous version back.

If you have a previously installed older version on your machine, you should still be able to access it.
