If I cancel my $19.99/month plan, do I lose all access to the Photoshop and Lightroom that is on my computer, or just the upgrades going forward??   Thanks everyone.

If you cancel your subscription, ALL modules in Lightroom except Develop and Maps continue to run, you do not lose your DAM (catalog) and Quick Develop still works! Adobe could have disabled all modules but does not. Yet you needlessly tell us this is “a scam”. 

You can now thank Adobe for this generosity.

Lightroom Classic and Bridge are not listed but both can be used in limited fashion as noted with a free account.

Lightroom Classic allows limited use on a free account. Photoshop requires a paid account.

You will not be able to use Photoshop at all if you cancel.

Hi

If you cancel your plan then yes you will lose all access to your subscribed applications, it's not a scam you just haven't read what you signed up for.

Looks like you sign up for the 1TB plan, the 20GB option would have been better, Adobe cloud storage is not the best and it's something I never use, even though I have 100GB available, I use local storage and save locally on multiple drives.
