P: Allow CPUs without AVX2 to install Adobe Products

Since other posts that discussed this situation in more detail seem to have magically vanished, a quick search reveals a video of the procedure. Be careful, everyone should do so if they're curious, but they do so at their own responsability. I won't respond to the detractors with unprovable technical arguments because they "accused" me of not respecting the community rules, without engaging in a direct debate, face to face, that is, acting behind my back, they deleted my account and all my previous posts. Such misconduct never occurred (nor could it be proven when I appealed several times), but these days, debating is considered "offensive."
Watch it for general information only. If you want.

Well, that data can be found on the processor manufacturer's website. But the crux of the matter here is that there's no technical evidence to support that decision. It's clearly a business decision, and it's debatable. And when you dispute it, you run the risk of being eliminated from the discussion. But these are the times we live in. It's another matter to assume that you should accept it and shut up.
From what I've read, Adobe is on bad financial footing, and these types of policies hurt it even more, leaving the door open for someone to break the habit of using one software for a couple of decades and start using another.

Unfortunately, the vast bulk of users of Lightroom and Photoshop do not know what CPU's include (or were made before the existence of) AVX2 support.  Far more helpful than "Intel or AMD CPUs having AVX2 support"

would be earliest model numbers of CPUs with AVX2.  Windows System Information gives the processor brand, generation, and model number.  (No mention of AVX or AVX2) 

I am certain of it:They will not yield.  The dilemma is that even a new purchase of a new PC/Laptop does not warrant support to AVX2. No hardware maker advertises AVX2 support in their products. This is the problem. Try to verify it with Intel/AMD web page once you will determine a specific CPU.

Was there any response from Adobe to your suggestions? I am in the same situation. In the past Adobe flagged updates as compatible or not for my system. Unfortunately, some changes were made in LRC 14 but not flagged as incompatible. I updated as usual only to discover that some major functionality has been crippled like the Slideshow feature which is completely non-functional. This appears to be due to the new AVX2 requirements. I found this after I had imported and edited quite a few photos so down revving would be a big undertaking.

There are a number of Mac Pro users saying the M based Macs perform way better.

Thanks ExUsa, I have seen those and considered it. But i need to have a dedicated graphics card for my other edits, which i might be able to do on the current machine if i went to a faster NAS solution. I was checking out OWC they have some great deals on the M4 and M5 systems, as well as used MacPro's.

$3700 for an M4 Max M4 Studio with 1TB storage and 128GB of RAM.

Yes, I actually used to have scripts running the DNG converter a while ago. For the LR 6.14 (last permanent license)
But than I finally decided to subscribe to Adobe, and thus I "returned to the fold." I have to say, Adobe has really steadily provided innovation and improvement.

For some of us a Mac Mini wont cut it. My minimum requirements is 128Gb of ram, for that you need a Xeon or some i9s, Core ultra, and now my Xeon is not supported. So i would need to get a new Mac Pro which is gonna run about $8k, which i cannot afford at present.
