Photoshop cs6 permanent free trial?

Hello, I need an help to understand about adobe photoshop cs6 with these instructions I've found in a photoshop designs tools site. It says it's possible to use adobe photoshop cs6 in a computer and have  a permanent free working version on pc.

 

  1. Completely free download and use of the full desktop version of Adobe XD for Windows or Mac. XD stands for “Experience Design,” and is Adobe’s popular all-in-one UX/UI solution to quickly design websites, mobile apps, and more. With the new Starter Plan, you absolutely get Adobe XD for free – and not a temporary trial version, but a permanently-working version.

 

 
But if you read the tutorial 's explanation above, it says that it's possible to have a permanently working version and have to get adobe xD for free (but the adobe XD says that i need a credit card and trial last 7 days. I don't have credit card and I need just the trial version... if i use the trial adobe XD free version, then , can I use the permanent photoshop even after 30 days?


I'm asking this because, I was trying to purchase in my country Adobe Photoshop cs6 (Full version not a subscription) but I can't find it. So, since I can't have a subscription , as I'm not working with photoshop but I use (for now at least) just to learn photoshop better and follows tutorials, I could not ever afford a subscription. I wish photoshop was just like always it's been, that is, one purchase it only 1 time, not that I have to pay something for life... If I'm a company, I can afford this, and it's perfectly understandable, but for a single user, that want to enjoy learn photoshop , to not give anymore the possibility to buy a full version that belong to my pc without the need of subscription, it's not something that I'm happy about it.
What if everyone would have to pay a subscription every month, to use , computers, softwares, tv , washing machine and so on)? I wish Adobe will consider this, at least, to do a full version of photoshop also for single home users....

Ok, sorry long message, thanks for any suggestions and if is true that adobe cs6 can be used in permanent way also after trial, let me know how,

 

thank you

Photoshop CS6 is not available for free or for a 30-day trial. Adobe software has been subscription only since 2013 and no longer offers a perpetual license. Trials are 7-days.

 

The offer you are seeing is for a pirated version and most likely comes with malware that can harm your computer. You can report the pirate to Adobe:

 

How do I report an email, website or pop-up window that falsely claims to represent Adobe?

 

Contact phishing@adobe.com.

 

Here are the plans for Photoshop and Creative Cloud. The Photography plan (annual) is $9.99 per month.

If you want something less expensive while you learn, try Photoshop Elements instead of Photoshop. It isn't as robust as Photoshop, but is an excellent application. It sells for $99 (perpetual license), but is on sale through March 13 for $69.99.

Or you can Google "alternatives to Photoshop" to find another application within your budget.

    ProDesignTools.com is definitely not a pirated software site! It is a site that has been publishing direct links to older Adobe versions with full consent from Adobe for years. I don't think you have understood what they are saying, however. AdobeXD is not Photoshop.

      Ok, a little updated. Finally I have a better idea of all the whole thing. I was insisting on the fact it was better to fully  purchase Adobe CS6 because I read the price of old photoshop was around 100$/300$ , but probably it was not correct information. Now I understand the price of Adobe it would be 1000$, so now I understand the subscription  is useful to purchase Adobe for a little price at time, and pay almost the same amount in the years instead of pay all at once. Now is more clear, thank you!


      But sorry, what exactly is this? I really need to study some tutorials with Photoshop, could be a solution this?
      How can I get the a free Creative Cloud membership?

      https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/benefits-creative-cloud-free-membership.html?mv=affiliate&mv2=red

       

      How it works a "Free Starter plan for Adobe XD" ? 

       

      "Yes, if you decide to cancel your paid subscription, your account is converted to a free membership. You can sign in to your Creative Cloud desktop app with the same Adobe account, and get access to all the features listed in What do I get with my free Creative Cloud membership?

      A free membership also lets you continue to access your files in the Creative Cloud folder on your computer and via the Creative Cloud website, subject to the limit of 2 GB of storage." 

      Can I get a free Creative Cloud membership without purchasing a subscription?

      Yes. When you start your  free trial of Creative Cloud   , you get access to a free Creative Cloud membership, which includes all the features listed in What do I get with my free Creative Cloud membership?



       

      I will try to download Adobe XD  https://www.adobe.com/products/xd/pricing/starter-plan.html

      and then what will happens? I can't afford for now subscription, so I can cancel and have a free trial ? And I can still access to a free Creative Cloud membership? What is it exaclty? It's in this way that I can use Photoshop cs6 ?
