CS3 not working

[Guest]

I uninstalled adobe CS3, got a new activation code and downloaded the version of CS3.  I install the new version and am never asked to input the new activation code and when I open CS3, it says I need to activate it again.  I try and get a connection error, again.  After that, I uninstalled again, used the cleaner program and shut down overnight.  I re-installed the CS3 I downloaded from the Adobe web site and still get an activation/connection error.  Please, please, please, help!!!  Windows 10, 32 bit.

CS3 is NOT supported under Windows 10. I’m afraid, if you’ve followed the directions for installing the replacement version, you’re very much on your own.

It worked on Windows 10 for quite a while before asking me to re-activate it.  But, never mind. We use Corel Draw too.  It is just as good.

Hi,

I suggest you try contacting Adobe Support​ for the same as they may help you with the installation and set-up.

Windows 10 is an evolving system and due to changes it comes to a point that older versions will not work any more.

Funny. It works on other computers in our office that also have Windows 10.

CS3 is more than 10 years old. If you don't want to upgrade, that's you choice, but software doesn't get updated forever.
