CS6 is PRE- monthly (PRE-cloud)... and is far as I will go.. I don’t play that crud :p
I am old fashioned and don’t trust my stuff on an online server. I THINK the monthly starts after CS8, not 100% sure though. CS6 is plenty powerful enough for me to last a LONG time though ;D
On the other hand, someone above thread mentioned a good idea to encrypt data before it’s sent to cloud... I may do that eventually. Id you’re talking about WIN 10, It is not connected to the net from inside the Virtual Box (and I didn’t pay for it, although I downloaded the ISO directly from MS itself :D)

From what i understand, adobe holds your work done in the cloud hostage until you pay their monthly extortion fee- that is one of the main reasons i never went with it- they lock your photos so that you can’t edit them again until you pay if you miss payment- or so it was back in the day they went to hte cloud- 0don’t know if that has changed or not- in essence, they steal your work IF you don’t pay again-

If you didn’t activate it, like i didn’t- there is a workaround to bypass the annoying ‘activate now’ crud they stick on your computer- and it will allow you to customize windows 10 without activation too i believe- found it on youtube-
open notepad type in
@echo off
taskkill /F /IM explorer.exe
explorer.exe
Save as .bat
double click the .bat file you created- and the activation watermark will be gone
