I've moved your post from Photoshop to Lightroom Classic because you mentioned "older versions". If you are using Lightroom instead, we can move your post again.

You can install older versions using the same Creative Cloud desktop app that you use to install the latest version of Lightroom Classic:

Install previous versions of your Creative Cloud apps

However, Adobe has a policy that only the current and previous major versions are available for installation:

Creative Cloud Support Policy

Right now that means the two versions available for installation are 13 (current), and 12 (previous). All versions earlier than that are not available for installation. It’s important to recognize that those ratchet up one version every year, because every year a new major version is released. If a new major version is released later this year, then the two versions available for installation will become (presumably) 14 and 13.

If you want to install a major version earlier than the last two, contact Adobe customer support and see if they can help, but I am not sure what they can do.
