CS6 Mac to Windows

I have an old copy of Adobe CS6 production premium student edition, and I'm not really interested in upgrading. Apple has stopped supporting CS6, but I have since gotten a new PC. Is there anyway to transfer my Mac CS6 to a Windows version?

Unfortunately not.

 

CS6 serial numbers were platform specific: Mac only or Windows only.

 

Adobe used to offer a platform exchange procedure from Mac to Windows and vice versa. That was discontinued long ago.
