About a year and a half ago I bought Adobe Photoshop CS3 Design Premium. Being a web developer and game developer have relied on these products heavily. I started Photoshop about a week ago and I get: ”Licensing for this product has stopped working” and the program closes
Three days later, after running their Licensing removal tool at all levels, and following other exceptionally silly tasks found here, running the cs3 clean script and then totally reinstalling the junkware I am still having the same issue. I called customer support, but just did not have 45min to 1Hour of time to wait.
I have seen several threads online regarding this issue, some people report success, some are still not able to use their software. I wish I could report that I am one of those lucky enough to get it working again, but I am not. How sad is it that since there is not much competition in this space we tolerate this from adobe? This is not just poor software design, it is bad business! I paid full price for this software, and it should work when I run it damn it!
All I can say is be very wary if you are considering purchasing Adobe products.
