My version of Lightroom 6.12 crashes after the 8th of December. The problem is a license expiry of a 3rd party dll file for face recognition.
When I bought the software, or even after buying the software, there hassn't been any information communicated by Adobe that the product could only be used til Dec 8, 2020.
I'd like to have an official answer from Adobe about their position on this one before contacting https://www.arn.se/om-arn/Languages/english-what-is-arn/ and hopefully to avoid unpleasant dialogues.
Description of the problem have been described by some "superusers" here: https://feedback.photoshop.com/conversations/lightroom-classic/lightroom-classic-v610-crashes-in-the...
I have no intention to download and install a "cracked" version of the dll-file even if a such a file would be available.

You won't get an official respons from Adobe, other than that Lightroom 6 is no longer supported so this is something that was bound to happen one day. This is a user-to-user forum, so you certainly won't get a respons here.
There is an 'accepted solution' in the thread you quote yourself...

The cause of the Face Detection problem appears to be a dll that has aged out. A dll by a third party that Adobe was using for Face Detection.
Some have found that changing their computers system clock to 12/14/18 or older gets around ths. A annoying workaround.that would have to be done each time before starting Lr.
Others simply remove the dll. However, doing that ends Face Detection.
the dll is:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Lightroom\CIT\Plug-ins\FaceRecognition\libfrsdk-8.6.0.dll
