Adobe Photoshop uninstall - "Specified Product is not installed on this machine..."

[bloos_magoos]

I had Photoshop 2020 installed for a while, but eventually i updated to 2022.  However, now creative cloud doesn't recognize that i have 2020 still installed and it won't show up in the Creative Cloud Desktop app.  If I try uninstalling via the control panel, I get an error saying "Specified product is not installed on this machine.  Please quit the installere and start over."

I tried the Creative Cloud Cleaner thing and it didn't detect photoshop 2020, only 2022.  Pls help, I don't need 2 photoshops.

contact adobe support* and request a ps cc 2020 download link.  then reinstall ps 2020 to restore your uninstaller,  restart your computer,  uninstall (first by trying the cc desktop app, but if it's not listed as already installed after that computer restart, use the windows control panel uninstaller.
