For the past few weeks I have been receiving e-mails from ACC to do with enhancements for Lightroom Classic. Each one has a download button. When I click on it, Adobe comes back with, "My computer does not meet the minimum requirements." Which is strange since I've been using Lightroom on the same computer for a few years. Anyone have a clue?
HP Pavilion, Windows 7 Home Premium, Athalon 2.6 CPU, 16 G RAM, 1 TB main HD, 2ea 2TB secondary HD, and 1 6 TB dedicated to Lightroom. Like I said earlier It works just fine.
You can't install (and probably can't download) Lightroom CC with Windows 7. (You can download and install Lightroom Classic CC) So what do the e-mails actually say, word-for-word, verbatim?
The Clarity slider makes it a snap to boost contrast in your photos’ midtones and bring out fine details. See how easy it is on any device with the reimagined interface in all-new Adobe Photoshop Lightroom CC, part of your Adobe Creative Cloud membership.
This e-mail is informing you about a totally NEW product that you don't have called Lightroom CC. It is different than Lightroom Classic CC. It is different than Lightroom CC 2015. It is different than LR 6.
You can't use Lightroom CC with Windows 7.
Just for future reference, here are the details comparing the different software.
As a word of advice for you or anyone else reading this far, so that in the future you receive much quicker answers, is to put the details of the problem (in this case the text of the e-mail) into your first message. Just saying you are receiving e-mails without the actual details means it will take longer to get help.
I have always received e-mails from AdobeCreativeCloud either about using LR, new techniques or updates. They're not maleware, my e-mails are pre-scanned.
