What is the frequency of validation for an annual subscription paid in full annually? That is, how long can I go without internet connectivity if I have an annual subscription that is paid in full annually? I'm thinking about LR Classic in particular, as well as Photoshop and InDesign.
You'll get a dialog box every day for the last 30 days.
Creative Cloud for individual
Up to one calendar month + 99 days of offline use
After one calendar month, a dialog box requests online connection.
You can dismiss the dialog box; the next reminder shows up after 30 days.
After one calendar month + 69 days, the dialog box appears daily.
After one calendar month + 99 days, one final offline product launch is available.
I've never gone that long without being online so I don't know how reliable that exact day count is. Or even if I'd be relying on it with a crucial deadline looming.
The Creative Cloud software verifies the account status on Adobe servers once a day. If the account is in good standing (that is, payment is up-to-date) when the last verification happens, the software status refreshes to run for at least 99 days offline. https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/manage-apps-services-desktop.html
