How to download and install Lightroom CC (2015)?

[tomh123]

I purchased

Creative Cloud Photography plan (one-year)‎

Last year, using the creative cloud downloader, I installed Lightroom CC (2015). It works great.

Yesterday, I tried to install it on my laptop. It said, "you do not meet the minimum requirements". And then I noticed that it's a 2017 version for Windows 10. Well, I'm running Windows 7 and I'm not going to upgrade to Windows 10 anytime soon.

Can someone please explain how I can install Lightroom CC (2015)?

I tried a few things:

1) If I "manage account" and click download Lightroom - "you do not meet the minimum requirements" - it wants Windows 10 and I'm not doing that.

2) If I "manage account" and click download Lightroom Classic - it isn't the same as LIghtroom CC (2015). I don't see an option for Lightroom CC (2015).

3) In Adobe Desktop Service. On my desktop that I installed last year. I can see Lightroom CC (2015) under "installed apps". However, when I click on "ALL APP" it isn't listed.

4) In Adobe Desktop Service. On my laptop. I can't see Lightroom CC (2015) under "installed apps" or under "ALL APPS" - it isn't listed.

In general, what the heck is going on here with the versions? There are too many and the downloader makes it confusing vs what I paid for last year and the version I've been using isn't listed anymore.

For example, here are a bunch of versions that I've encountered while attempting to figure this out:

lightroom-6

lightroom-cc

lightroom-classic

lightroom-2015

lightroom

Man that's confusing! Did the (2015) version get renamed or something?

I'm stumped.

Thanks

You should be able to re-download Lightroom CC (2015) if you click on "Other Versions" from the dropdown menu on the right side of the button for Lightroom Classic CC in the Creative Cloud Desktop app.

Either that, or you can use the Lightroom 6/CC 2015 direct download links.

Hope that helps.

The previous posts include links that are third party and confusing.

This is the direct adobe link with the download links for the last perpetual license release of Lightroom:
