My laptop’s C drive shows that Photoshop and Illustrator have both been updated to the 2026 versions, but the Adobe folders in my hard drive still contain Photoshop 2023 and 2024, and both of them can open and run normally. Why is that? Can anyone tell me?
because you didn't opt to uninstall previous versions.
if you want to uninstall those previous versions, at this point, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html
They haven't been updated to 2026.
A new version (2026) has been installed.
