Why should I keep my operating system current?

We focus our development efforts on more recent versions of Windows and macOS operating systems to ensure peak performance and security. Our product offerings are in line with the latest support policies from Microsoft and Apple for their operating systems. For optimal performance and security, we recommend you keep the operating system of your computer up to date.

Follow the instructions for your operating system.

What should I do if I can't upgrade my operating system?

If you can't upgrade your operating system right now, you can continue to use the currently installed version of your Creative Cloud apps—although functionality may be limited—until you can upgrade.
