I am trying to install Indesign CS3 in Windows 10 (which I have done several times to open Pagemaker files) and I can't, I see the text that I show in the attached file

But then even if it installs, you won't be able to activate it as the activation servers have been shut down. How do plan to use it then?

Didn't Adobe issue a non-activating installer for CS3 for licensed users when they shut down the servers? I remember seeing posts about it, but the download page seems to be gone.

According to this thread https://community.adobe.com/t5/download-install-discussions/cs3-activation-no-longer-possible-is-this-really-legal-cs3-is-dead-locked/td-p/10840660 that version is also no longer available.

This problem seems to occur when more than one version of InDesign has been installed on your system. An old thread https://community.adobe.com/t5/indesign-discussions/error-missing-cp1252-txt-file/td-p/1365139 deals with the issue. It offers an explanation plus several possible suggestions for fixing the issue.
