Searching for windows download file InDesign and Photoshop year 2020/2021

Hello everyone,

does anyone have a download file/package for InDesign and Photoshop from 2020/2021? Unfortunately, my PC can no longer be updated and is stuck on Windows 10 version 1909. The newer versions of InDesign are not compatible with this older operating system. Sadly, Adobe Support doesn’t have download files for the older versions anymore—only for the last three releases. They therefore advised me to ask here in the community, as someone here might be able to provide me with the download file.

PS: I have an active subscription, so I really only need the download file, which I can then link again with my Creative Cloud account.

I’m hoping someone might still have this old download somewhere on their PC and would be willing to share it with me.

You would be my lifesaver.

Best regards

    Unfortunately, if Adobe can’t or won’t help there is very little chance anyone else is going to be able to. I will warn you to avoid scams.

    That said, why can’t you can’t upgrade that computer? I’m not aware of any restrictions on upgrading to the last release of Windows 10.

    Thanks for your reply and the warning. I had the same concerns about scams.

    I’m not sure what’s wrong with my computer. During the installation of the Windows update, error messages appear and the process aborts.

    The computer isn’t very new anymore, so I think it’s broken and it’s time for a replacement.

    In the meantime, while I’m looking for a new one, I’m trying to find the old Adobe versions.

    It does sound like it’s time for a new computer. Make sure it has at least 16GB of RAM and fast processor.
