Can't use Tutorials in apps

Depending on how I see them, all the tutorials (like the recent "Blend Images in Photoshop" require me to download Photoshop. No matter what I do, I STILL can't download the tutorial files, nor can I follow the tutorial. I've had Photoshop on my computer since before it was a suite...LAST thing I want to do is download and install software over software.

Why is the Discover/Learn system set up this way? I'm constantly trying to learn more from these tutorials, and every time it comes out the same. Either this system or I am extraordinarily stupid. I'm hoping it's not me.

What's up with this?

Try this Blog article with videos (scroll down) that might be of help-

(I guess that 'in app' tutorials are meant to be 'interactive' with the appropriate app.)

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.0, Photoshop 27.0, ACR 18.0, Lightroom 9.0, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0 .

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post if it helps you get responses.

Thanks. Finding information in the forums has been difficult since they discontinued software support those many years ago. My problem is that the sales schtick is so strong, that everything wants me to download software to use tutorials. I've been using Photoshop since before it had layers. But now I teach it and need quality tutorials that don't require downloading and installing software we already have to follow them.

That button that says "View tutorial in Photoshop"? It's actually a button to download the installer. I want a way around it. Thanks anyway.
