Hard Drive Crashed and CS6 photoshop app lost

[Stephen27419566o2ji]

My Hard Drive Crashed recently with my boot and all my files on it. I had purchases Photoshop CS6 around 2013. I had copied and pasted all my Abobe files onto an external USB drive. 

I have moved them back to my hard drive however when I launch the file an error box appears with "error 1" stating to unistall and reinstall. The files to install/unstall isn't available.

I have looked through my abode account and my email for a receipt or order history however I can't find any order purchase.

Is there any methode I can get my CS6 photoshop back?

yes, you must have your serial number and the installation file.

because you searched and found nothing useful, you may be at the end of the road with cs6 because having your serial number is critical.

the installation file you can probably get online from prodesigntools.com, if your version was an individual, usa license.  otherwise, you may be able to get your installation file if you purchased from or registered with adobe.

and you may be able to get your serial number if you purchased from or registered with adobe.

for the common (in usa) installation file, https://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html

follow the directions (esp, step 1)

save the install file. it may not remain online.
