Serial number not valid anymore after upgrading to windows 11

My serial number failed. I forgot to deactivate in my old account on windows. Now it's not possible to use my CS5 suite anymore.

Any tips or advice? I tried searching and also did a clean install after using the removal tool. It did work first hour in windows 11, but somehow it got corrupted after booting the update program?

CS5 it is not certified to run on Win 11, sorry.  Nor is it compatible with macOS Catalina, Big Sur or Monterey.  CS5 is a decade-old, discontinued product.

 

You need modern software that's compatible with your new computer.

Thanks for your response. Guess I need to look  elsewhere to modify my images.
