Yarr, ye by digging yourself a Mass Grave if you be running them Next Gen programs of the P variety.

Honestly, though, how long is that going to work for you? Windows 10 runs out of service like next year, sooner for most versions. It's just not sustainable.

You can still pirate Windows 11 matey. And don't forget Win 10 LTSC edition still has support until 2027.

Windows 11 LTSC was also released recently for anyone that has to use 11.

Not that I condone piracy, but I thought photoshop switched to a SaaS model from CS6 or so that made it unlikely to be pirated?

It's still possible and last time I used it, it was about as easy as can be.

When I last did it, you just downloaded the regular program, installed it, then you ran a patcher and that was it. This was a couple years ago now, but Adobe already had their current business model.

Yup. The only real difference is the pricing model, the program is pretty much the same.

I rememeber they tried offering online libraries of stuff for download to justify the subscription for some products.
