  1.  Adobe promised to work on a 32bit version of cc for this specific surface pro x, has that happened? If so does it work? Thanks.

When you say CC do you mean the Cloud Centric version of LR? The newer version called just Lightroom and not LR Classic?

 

LR Classic will never run on that new MS Surface Pro X. Maybe in the future with the Surface Pro X 4. Who knows.

 

I have no idea what Adobe is planning on doing.

Can you point to, post a link, where they said they will update, create a new version of the Cloud Centric LR version to specifically run on a MS Surface Pro X?

Hi 

the press coverage of the microsoft launch for surface X had adobe on the platform and they said they would be updating

Really? Did you read any of that announcement,webpage?

Quotes:

Fresco will be able to run on it but no mention of any other Adobe apps.

 

Unfortunately, Belsky didn’t offer any more details about which Adobe Creative Cloud apps could be coming to the Surface Pro X next, but the company is already hard at work on bringing “real Photoshop” to another ARM-based device, the iPad.

 

[And]

 

 The iPadOS version of the app [Fresco] is yet to be officially released, but Adobe clearly sees ARM-based devices as an important part of its future.

Belsky said that Fresco will be coming to the Surface “very soon,” but didn’t offer an exact release date.
