I've got problem with my Photoshop CS6. I'm photographer, and I was using CS6 for over 5 years. Suddenly my Windows 10, has stop working. After reinstall Windows, I have reinstall Photoshop from DVD ROM, with my Serial Number. It has install ok. After run program It was said that I have to log in and add serial number. When I did it, it said that my key number has been anulled!!
I bought it about 6 years ago. I got it from store. I got original DVD Rom with AdobePhotoshop CS6, and a intructions how to activate it and with serial number. When I login on site, and try to add it, It said that this key is using by. I don't know how to fixed it. I'm from Poland, and here I can't call to Polish support....
You're not confusing activation and registration? If it's already registered, there's no point in registering again with a reinstall. It will already be registered.
Photoshop CS6 had automatic background activation. It would activate itself silently without any action from the user.
OK, that looks like a bigger problem. Even with my limited knowledge of Polish, that looks like "serial number revoked" - meaning it has been flagged as an illegal serial number, or one used illegally. A favorite trick by the pirates was to sell a volume license to a large number of individual users.
This is often caught years later. It often won't give you any problems as long as you have the software installed, but when reinstalling, the serial number is rejected.
In other words, you've been scammed. Pirated CS6 copies have been flooding the market for many years.
