The yellow highlighted icon on your taskbar is for Lightroom Classic, The green highlighted icon is for Lightroom (which is the running application).

Yes, and that is what you did. Lightroom is also part of the Photography Plan. Simply uninstall it again if it creates so much confusion for you.

Sounds like you installed the wrong Lightroom. The one you are looking for is Lightroom Classic, the one that looks like Camera Raw is Lightroom.

No, it's is indeed installed lightroom classic.   Every thing was working fine. The problem arise after I let lightroom do a face detection, so lightroom can load faster per lightroom tell me.  After lightroom finished scanning all my folders and I got messed up interface.   The only way to get a normal lightroom interface, I have to open lightroom frpm Cat.

So you have both versions installed. If you open 'cat-V13.lrcat', then Lightroom Classic will open because that is the Lightroom Classic catalog. You first screenshot shows Lightroom however, not Lightroom Classic.

No. I only have 1 version of lightroom classic and photoshop installed.  The CAT-V13.Lrcat were previously created my custom catalog.

I am thinking maybe reinstall lightroom classic, as I said on earlier post.  Everything was working as it's should, until something had happened in the face detection caused lightroom to messed up the interface.

Ok.  I am not at home at the moment.  The screen shot is exactly what I see on my computer screen upon open lightroom.  My question is why the hell Adobe switching my lightroom classic to just lightroom?  Just wondering.

A big thank you to everyone trying to help me understand this confusing to me at first.  Adobe did installed LR & LRC into my computer and I just wasn't realizing it, and that is ok.  I will probably never going to use LR camera raw..
