When I export a media file, I used to have to options which are "dolby channel" and Linear "PCM";

HOWEVER, after I update to Premiere pro CC 2018, when I export files the audio format page shows me there is only PCM option.

anyone knows about this? please let me know what how to solve this problem!

I need to export with dolby option!

In 2018 and forward, Dolby encoding  (like some other licensed codecs) is handled by the OS.

Win8.1 and forward, including Win10, and the last few MAC OS's have Dolby in the system codecs.

Win7 is really the only problem, with that ancient but venerable OS, you need to stay with 2017.

I'm not sure that's correct.  The note from Adobe says Dolby decoding is handled by the OS, but support for encoding is dropped entirely.  Which means we would need to pay for a third-party tool to create Dolby files.
