Can you please help me understand how to install LR classic on my laptop?
Is it still included in my Lightroom CC subscription?
 
I would like to support both types (Classic's PC hard drive AND cloud) of workflows.
 
The video
 
 
was still confusing to me although I do not know when the video was created.
 
I paid for the Lightroom cloud (CC I would guess) monthly subscription.
 
Thank you.
Correct answer dj_paige

Your Lightroom Plan should include Lightroom Classic (see here) so you should be able to open the Adobe Creative Cloud application on your computer and select Lightroom Classic to be installed.

So its important to get terminology right, because what you have written doesn't really make sense.

 

There is no Lightroom CC subscription, that term isn't really used. You can have a subscription to the Photography Plan, or you can have a subscription to the Lightroom Plan. It is important for us to know which subscription you have. You can go to account.adobe.com, log in, and see the EXACT name of your subscription. Mine is shown below, I have the Photography Plan 20GB subscription. What do you have?

Hello, sorry for the confusion.  I checked and mine is:  Lightroom plan with 1TB.

Thank you!

Hey @amazing_yogi0D45

I checked the account that is associated with your community ID, and I don't see any subscriptions. Can you DM me the Adobe ID associated with your active account?
