Okay so, I deleted the PS CS6 from my "F" directory and I wanted to install it in "C" but when I tried to do it I got that

"An earlier installation of this product was found. This Product will be installed at its original location."

    well, I have tried a better thing. I installed it in the "F" again and moved it into "C" > Adobe and it worked lol

    hopefully, you uinstalled it and didn't delete it.

    in any case, your best bet now is to run the cleaner:  http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

    restart your computer

    then try installing.

    But you might not be happy with the consequences if you need to install an update.
