Install Photoshop CS6 13.0 onto Mac OS Monterey 12.3.1

When I try to install Photoshop CS6 13.0 onto my laptop (MacOS Monterey 12.3.1), I get the following error:

 

"Install" needs to be updated.

The developer of this app needs to update it to work with this version of macOS. Contact the developer for more information.

 

I realize I have an old version of photoshop as my register product, but is there a fix for this?  Replacing the dead laptop was expensive enough, I'm not keen to have to replace this too.

    But Adobe Photoshop CS6 is a 64 bit application?


    Yes, but the installer is 32-bit only.  Read the part about legacy/perpetual versions.

      So what is the "fix?"

      You can't install that old version on Monterery. 

      You either need to run a much older (pre-Mojave) OS or subscribe to a modern version of Photoshop.
