CS2 update

[andrash8987003]

As a retired journalist I need to update a book I edited in InDesign many many years ago. Currently I have no Adobe system installed (except, of course AdobeReader). Which zip files I should download for Win10 from among the many listed on the Support page if I need only InDesign? I have all the old CS2 Premium discs) Thanks for any advice András Hirschler

The chances of getting CS2 successfully installed and running in Windows 10 is practically zero! Even Windows 7 users had problems.

You can try following the procedure outlined here for new CS2 installers but you are completely on your own: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/creative-suite-2-activation-end-life.html

You’re far better off subscribing to InDesign CC on a month to month basis.

Thank you Bob.

I agree with Bob.

You can get an InDesign subscription in the US for $31.49 per month (month-to-month). $20.99 per month for annual plan, paid per month:

My experience is different. I have successfullhy installed and run CS2 on Windows 10 and Windows 11 machines with ZERO issues. and no extraordinary measures for the install.

That said, I support following Adobe guidelines for us of all their products.
