Upgrading from Lightroom 5.7.1 to Lightroom 6 standalone?

How do you upgrade Standalone Lightroom 5.7.1 to Lightroom 6?  I keep being sent to the CC and all it gives me is a "Trial" version good for 30 days. I installed that and it immediately says Trial over.  Is there an upgrade path? I can find no support number or email support for Adobe. Thanks for any help

If you DO buy the upgrade, once you have your serial # for Lightroom 6, you won't need to re-download it. Just follow the instructions here:  Adobe Photoshop Lightroom Help | Serialize Lightroom CC trial to activate as Lightroom 6

Hi Jeffrey, I had Lightroom 5.7 on my cumputer, but after an upgrade from Windows 8 to Windows 10, I was not able to open Lightroom anymore. So I decided to buy Lightroom 6, but all the work made on my pictures using Lightroom 5.7 is not recognized by Lightroom 6. how can I get all the previous work made before on Lightroom 5.7?

Hi guillermov88751888 ,

I'm in doubt of upgrading after seeing your post, as i'm on 5.7.1 and thinking of going 6.0. Do Adobe solved your problem?

Hi William. You can buy an upgrade to Lightroom 6 (the non-CC version) here:  Products  (Look for 'Photoshop Lightroom 6' towards the bottom)
