Do I need Adobe Account to use PS Elements?

[hh26574741]

Simply, do I need to have Adobe Account to continue using Photoshop Elements?

Additionally, am I able to download and install said product without the Account? (Provided that I have my serial number stored somewhere else, too)

H, yes, you will need an account to register and active Photoshop Elements.  You can use the same account you used to post to this public discussion forum, and that was used to register your previous Adobe purchases.  For more information, please see https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/find-serial-number-elements.html

You may also need to install the CC app in order to install Photoshop Elements.

You have an Adobe account. You used it to ask your question.

I am aware I have an account. I didn't ask that, I asked if I need it to continue using PS Elements.

My questions have been answered partially here and partially privately thus my issue is resolved. Kind thanks to the helpers!
