Can't see dehaze slider?

I signed up for Creative Commons several months ago.  I update whenever I can (It now says no updates are available).  I have Lightroom ver 5.7.1.  It seems that others have more up-to-date versions.  Why is that?  How do I get a more up-to-date version also?

Hi, as far as I understand people is not finding dehaze slider because they do not subscribed and upgraded to LR CC.

Well, I just sbuscribed and upgraded LR.

I don't know how I can be sure to have now LR CC, but my current version is 6.1.1, so I guess it must be LR CC because stand alone version cannot upgrade so far.

PROBLEM: I still don't see neither dehaze nor w/b new local sliders!

What can I do?

I would like to avoid unsintall and install procedure, as I have tons of presets, plugins and other stuff that I am not fully aware how to migrate in such case.

PS.: My Adobe Manager application states I have Lightroom CC (2015) installed and no upgrades are available.

"Continuous subscription payments leads to continuous features.  One-time payments get you one-time features. "

Depends.. In the case of Jetbrains Intellj they have both a subscription and stand alone costs.   Stand alone comes with 1 yr of bug fixes and feature enhancements.   There is no difference between the product it is just how you pay for it so lets not make it sound like this is some industry standard.   As to would I have signed up for CC with Dehaze..  Most likely not and I most likely would have not upgraded either and looked into it a bit more.   Had there been the image you showed it would have been enough to put in on the back burner.   I never was shown that image in my ordering process I can assure you.   

We can agree to disagree here...  I now common subscription models date back to MS days with Visual studios and how the MS supporters thought it was the greatest thing since slice bread without even thinking about MS customers use cases.   What about the person that uses it 3 times a year.    Well Adobe is still provide a path for these users but I really think they created what I term the "2nd Class Citizen" and they should not have.    SHould have been similar to Jet Brains approach.   You get a year of upgrades and unlimited bug fixes and release a few quarterly releases.   With CC you still see features first and you get Photoshop and the cloud crap as part of the package (Another thing I have no need for).   That way... The applications minus the cloud features are on par and your stand alone users are not left out of the party.    Also makes it a heck of a lot easier to keep things straight when communicating.    

I now log into my account only to see a Dehaze ad (Same one in my splash screen) reminding me of what I mean to the company.    You can keep trying to slide blame way and that is fair..  I did not dig in as deep as a normally do because I was multi-tasking.  But the fact still remains.  I was not warned during my upgrade process,  I am concerned some day stand alone will disappear leaving me with a freeze scenario, and as a customer I am feeling like a '2nd Class citizen'.    None of these should be a goal of a company.   Like I said..  I build software for a living, have done it for 30 years, and understand licensing models and their effects.    This one has the effect I am talking about and there are ramifications to it. 

let me ask a question on something I am not aware of..  If a person goes CC and stops there CC,  does their light room freeze at that moment or does it not work at all?   And...  As far as upgrading,  they are very generous on getting people to move from older versions.    This generosity saved me because their install could not detect my valid version 5 and I could not locate my serial number...  Here is another tip for Adobe,   Allow the user to see there serial number within their application.  It does have value.  

Well that is my opinion..  I will consider it a mistake and be much more careful with Version 7.  looks like there is a workaround and I will be sure to try it as I do a lot of national park photography and haze is an issue..  and links or tips to remove haze would be much appreciated.    

If this sounds harsh,  my apologize.  I am seeing a disturbing trend with these type of structures and feel the need to point out the potential side effects as I personal have experienced no less than 4 of these over the last two years.  Companies need to think about the impact...  They need to understand their uses uses cases... and build pricing structures that address them without isolating customers...   I think this practices is isolates and that is never good. 

Cheers.

I'm experiencing the same problem.  When LR loads it display version 6.1 .... so ... where is it??

Using the perpetual License version (i.e. standalone)

NOT good!

Much publicity about "What's New" as of 15th June on Adobe's web site (including highlighting the De-Haze function!)

Lightroom CC new features | Buy Adobe Photoshop Lightroom CC

and then failure to post the update at the same time as the other 2015 Updates were posted with no official explanation being given for the omission at all.

The new version that you are looking for (2015.1.0) is not yet available to the public.

I have lightroom cc 2015 installed and it says that there is no update available. I checked for dehaze and I also do not have it.
