CS6 Design and Web Premium & Mojave

I recently updated to Mojave 10.14 and own CS6 Design & Web Premium. Upon startup there is a message that the Adobe Application Manager needs to be updated. I have searched the Adobe site and a lot of support docs and community forums but cannot find out how I can do this. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Much appreciated!

    CS6 and earlier programs have not been tested and will not be updated for Mac El Capitan or later operating systems

    -which means that you try to use CS6 and earlier at YOUR risk of having problems due to Apple updates

    -Apple did not maintain backward compatibility with old programs in El Capitan or Sierra

    --Adobe has a workaround to Apple's problem of not maintaining backward compatibility

    --READ HERE https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2301916 for an Adobe solution to installing old programs, including a link to installing the old Java runtime that is required

    --Also read for more information https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2458382

    --and https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/install-or-run-applications-new.html

    Basically, every time Apple issues an update there is an increasing chance that old programs won't work

    I wasn't trying to install, the suite is already installed, this message just came up on startup. I guess I just wait until CS6 no longer runs.

    Thanks for the response.
