Download legacy Adobe CC versions...

I do remember we used to have a forum dedicated for General Adobe CC issues. I cannot find the forum now.

My question is related to the legacy (older) Creative Cloud applications which we used to get in the desktop menu, see below…

Recently Adobe changed the desktop menu fully, and we're now limited to two older versions only from the desktop menu

We, however, can access yet one other older version from this help page.

I have a large Academic client who has a Certiport Testing Center for their faculty and students to be Adobe Certified Associate. The issue is Certiport system is only compatible with the following versions…

Photoshop 2018 version: 19.1.8
Illustrator 2018 version: 22.1
Premier Pro 2018 version: 12.1.2

Now, the above versions aren't too old, I'm surprised that Adobe would give us a chance to download v.2017, but not 2018?

Any clue where we can get above-shown version?

Good morning.
ProDesignTools.com is a site run by Prodesign, a Community Expert.

As far as whether it is legitimate or not, it has legitimate information from their standpoint, but as far as CC2020 is concerned, I have heard from some people in Japan that they inquired in the same way and did not get a link, so it is just a matter of asking them via chat and seeing what they think.

Is it permissible by adobe creative clouds for using software or only cc2020 from that site?

That site only provides links to downloads from Adobe sites. They only provide the link, not the download. The download comes directly from Adobe, so it is safe to download.

Thank you John- this is a super useful link 🙂

Unfortunatly Adobe has removed the links for 2018 and older.

Best,

I've just noticed this issue, of course at a time when I need to install an older version.

Both the links shared here now redirect:

Zaid_Al_Hilali, good evening.
CC2018 products can still be downloaded from the link below.

https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/creative-cloud-apps-download.html

However, it is unconfirmed whether a minor update has been applied, so please try installing it to check it.

* If you are using Team version or Enterprise version, you can also deploy from Admin Console, and it seems that the update has been applied.

Good day Tacafy, thanks for your suggestion which I forwarded already to the client. I didn't hear back from them yet. Much appreciate your assistance.
