Can't download older versions of Photoshop

Hello,
I signed the photo plan with Photoshop and Lightroom. I already had it some time ago and now I have it again. I remembered that it was possible to download older versions of the software, but in the case of Photoshop I can no longer find versions earlier than 19.1.8. I use the software on a main PC, where I don't have performance problems, so I use the latest versions with ease, but I also have an older laptop where I prefer to use the CS6 version (for some editing when I'm away from home)
I attach a screen of what I see when I go to download the old versions

I am just kind of at a loss for words. I'm so frustrated with Adobe's management these days. I have been an adobe customer for not 1 decade, not 2 decades but almost 3 decades and just cannot fathom why in recent years esp. with the advent of subscription model the product has just gotten clunky and laggy with each new update there are new "features" that cause lag. . To make matters worse, I can't roll this back to a 2019 version? I just got to say wow. Tell me this isn't so.

Yes it look like if you did not down load old Perpetual version installers and their updates  and perserve these downloads Adobe has removed them from the web. You will need to deal directly with Adobe it seems their take is old version have no support pay for a subscription for the newer bugger versions. Even if you have the installer the online update are not longer available.  I think Adobe will have problems....

Hi

If you have a perpetual license for CS6 then you can contact customer care for a download link.

With a CC subscription then only the current and last versions are now available for download.

Adobe is just making  it harder to use and maintain older version of their Software that users purchased a licence to use.  When you have machine problems and have to reinstall Perpetual Products you now have to contact Adobe to get updates. Is that a respectful way to treat customers.  Take down updates so customers have to call or deal with Adobe to give Adobe a chance to push a subscription.  It marketing and poor Adobe customer support.

I've checked them and you're right. The links doesn't work.

Sorry, I don't have checked the links before I've posted them.

In the meantime I've found a document from Adobe that they have remove older versions: Remove unauthorized versions
