CS6 purchased before Creative Cloud

I recently stopped my CC photography subscription and now find that my older CS6 Photoshop is not launching, it says to update subscription. I purchased this software from Adorama back in 2012 and still have the disc and product number. How to get it working again?

    Use the Adobe Cleaner tool to wipe old files off your system.

    Then re-install CS6.

    Can you provide your OS information? Are you on a Mac or PC? What OS version are you on?

    As soon as you install any part of the Cloud, even a trial, it replaces your program management system
    -Read Cloud takes over https://community.adobe.com/t5/Get-Started/Get-off-the-cloud/td-p/8075485 for some ideas
