No longer available officially. The only legal option to access Fireworks for Windows users is to rent the Adobe CC suite. Costly though, if Fireworks is your only interest.

Fireworks is discontinued and hasn't been sold for 7 years.  Sorry.

Beware of fake Adobe reps who may contact you privately offering to sell you software or take control of your computer. It's a scam, run away!

It's only available via full or student/teacher creative cloud subscritions (enable show old apps in settings). Also if you're a Mac user it won't work on Catalina as there is no 64 bit version.

 

Other than that you could try to purchase a Fireworks CS6 license second hand, although genuine ones will be very hard to find, I see them on eBay sometimes but doubt if they are genuine. If the eBayer is selling multiple licenses it's fake for sure, if it's a one-off it may be a genuine seller.

 

Adobe announced EOL (end of life) for Fireworks in 2013, they have been triying to kill it off for a long time and steering users towards other Adobe products, but it hasn't really worked and still has a lot of loyal uses for good reason, but don't hold your breath for a reprieve for Fireworks, I don't think that will ever happen.

Hi, I have the full student/teacher creative cloud account. However before I signed in, I had a trial version of Fireworks. So now, even when I am launching Fireworks from Creative Cloud it is telling me that my trial has ended and asking for a serial number... How do I remove this trial "memory" so that it will launch a "subscribed" Fireworks from the Creative Cloud app? Thanks!

if you search the Fireworks forum you'll see some people with creative cloud subscriptions  have had an issue with being asked for a serial or seeing a trial nag screen ... seems to be a glitch.

 

If you have a full or studentt/teacher creative cloud subscription just clicking the 'license this software' button sould resolve the issue.

Fireworks has been discontinued & unsupported for 7 years.  Enterprise/Teams members need to get a package for legacy apps from your IT dept admin, assuming your company policies allow you to use discontinued software.

This rediculous - You can't get a Key from anbywhere, and adobe won't give you a key and it doesn't work with Adobe CC.  I would just cancel my Adobe account, but I doubt that Adobe would care - one user ... big deal.
Surely Adobe can come to some work around?
Perhaps Adobe could give me the source code or make it available for general use - at least something.
When dollars is all a company cares about it is a very sad world.

Thank you for your reply Nancy.

I have a lot of legacy Fireworks files and Fireworks really is the perfect tool for what I do.
Very sad that Adobe isn't interested in helping out.
If it is no longer a product for Adobe, then why can't they just create a Licence Generator and make it part of CC so at the very least they get a years subscription from it! (probably fom a lot of people!)  Then we can all go on about our live happily.

Thank you for your time.

Regards,

Nick R.

Hi,

Photopea can open layered Fireworks PNGs, it is a bit of a Photoshop clone, so if you're familiar with Photoshop it will be easy to pick up.

 

To get a standalone license will be hard, and whether it would be legit would be another issue,  Fireworks is only available from Adobe now via a Creative Cloud subscription,

 

Bear in mind if you are on a Mac that Firewoks won't run on Catalina or Big Sur natively, because they do NOT support 32 bit apps, in these instances people have successfully ran the Windows version of Fireworks on a Mac using Parallels Desktop

Thank you Paul.  I was able to open all of my FW .png files in PhotoPea and save them as layered .PSD files.  It saved me a ton of extra work!

@TIEN KUEI5E25,

Most new computers can't support older software.  And in a few weeks, Apple & Microsoft will launch their newest operating systems  -- Monterey and Win11  -- further widening that gap between new & old.

 

Assuming you have a paid Creative Cloud ALL Apps plan on Win10, you should still have access to FW from your Creative Cloud Desktop App.   Be sure to check the box to  Show Older Apps  (see screenshot).

NOTE:  Some users report that installing Muse allows them to get beyond the FW licensing screen.  If you haven't tried it yet, give it a go and see if it works for you. 

 

Hope that helps.

As a long time user of Fireworks and with the need to still provide services to legacy customers using Fireworks, as I am sure many do, with the same frustrations as TIEN KUEI5E25 I tried the installation of Muse CC and it seems to have solved the ongoing issue I've had since September/October.

A non-elegant and hacky way of doing it but at least it seems to work for now #Adobe #FireworksCS6 #serial #prompt #issue #Creative #Cloud #successful #musecc #install
