Lightroom Plan with 1TB

I have subscribed to Lightroom Plan with 1TB for $23.99/month.

When I looked at the version that was installed on my desktop I noted it was version 8.5 not the latest version 14.  Why is this?

It clearly said Lightroom Classic for Desktop, but I got this old version.

Very confused, can anyone sort this out for me. 

Correct answer KR Seals

"Lightroom" is a completely different app than "Lightroom Classic"

The V 8.5 indicates that you have Lightroom. Lightroom Classic is currently at V14.5.1

Check in the Creative Cloud App to see if your subscription includes Lightroom Classic.

Nope, Creative Cloud shows no opportunity to install LRC.  I give up..

Try to sign out of the CC desktop app, then sign in again.

This can sometimes fix issues.

Thank you for your reply, it clearly says Lightroom Classic in the description box...

Well then, you haven't installed Lightroom Classic or you are starting the wrong app. The icon for Lightroom Classic contains the letters LrC. Take a look in the Creative Cloud App for installed apps. You can start Lightroom Classic from there. If it's not listed as an installed app, then you can install it from the Creative Cloud App.
