Is there a way to install Fireworks on a Mac running Parallels Desktop for Windows? I can't seem to find any version of the program for download - and if I do its a trial version from some suspect website, which I'm not going to trust. I have tons of files I created with Fireworks and need to open them with all the layers available and editable.
Any solutions out there?
I'm assuming you have a Creative Cloud subscription?
Firstly install the Creative Cloud app in your Parallels Windows VM, then go here and download a Fireworks CS6 offline installer for Windows. *Important* these are links to official Adobe installers and you need to visit this page first and login with your Adobe credentials before trying to download (to set an Adobe cookie).
I got Fireworks CS6 working successfully on a Macbook Air M1 with this method.
Other things which may be useful: there is a web based app called Photopea that can open layered Fireworks PNGs and here are some Fireworks commands for batch converting layered Fireworks PNGs to PSDs and other formats.
