No doubt, Brent is right. Photoshop is only available as a subscription now. I suspect all software will go that way soon. We have to have the subscription to use it (legally) so we do. The new version is mostly changed layout and I don't know if it is one iota faster or better. I doubt it.
Since we pay for it, and the easy way is to download from the Adobe server, that is what I did. I will eventually get used to some of the "new and improved" features. One of the total classic moves of Photoshop was for years one of the free sample batch files was called contact sheet. One could easily pick the folder of photos, and then pick the size of the page, and tell it how many rows and columns to build, and wham a old style page of images with the file names. In one of the big updates, they just killed the automation entirely and made you use a separate program called light table. We just kept the old version around and used that.
They finally brought it back a few versions back. It is still in the newest version, but automated batches are a royal pain to set up and use. I had to figure it out and I can make it work. I have CD of my Photoshop Ver 6 about 20+ years ago. It was for Win 95 so it is old. I am tempted to load it on occasions. It was way easier to use. This is version 21 or 2020 depending on what part of the web I search.
