older versions of photoshop

Hey folks. It is 2020 and the latest version of photoshop seem to be plagued with bugs, at least to an illustrator. How can I download a 2015 or 2017 version ? The creative cloud interface only seems to go back to 20.09 version.    Any advice?

The short answer is, you can't. Adobe no longer provides downloads to anything but the current version and the immediately proceding version of its CC applications. This was a policy change made about a year ago.

Be aware that there are scammers out there who may try to get in touch with you to sell you earlier versions of Adobe products. They will often have Adobe in their user name and direct you to contact them via an Outlook email address (which should be an immediate tip-off, really). Creative Suites is no longer legally available, and you can't even activate CS1-3 anymore.

I see.  Thanks for the info. Seems really silly the sorta situation Adobe CC is placing its customers in. I mean if it aint broke dont fix it. But all CC does is add changes and resolve bug issues. And forces us to go thru the storm.  Sadly maybe after 15 years of using the tool I will need to switch over to SAI or something else.
