Overview
This is the whole Adobe range gathered into one image with a launcher that lets you install only what you want. Every application is preactivated, so there is no sign-in, no trial timer and no subscription check on any of them. For a machine being set up from nothing, it removes a dozen separate downloads and a dozen separate installs.
The collection covers the imaging, vector, layout, video, audio and web applications along with the shared components they depend on. Installing everything is possible and rarely sensible, since the full set consumes a great deal of disk and most people use four or five of them.
What is in the collection
The imaging and design side covers the raster editor, the vector application, the page layout program, the photo catalogue and the PDF tools. The video side covers the timeline editor, the compositor, the encoder and the audio workstation. Alongside those sit the web and prototyping applications, the three dimensional and texturing tools, and the font and asset management components.
The shared runtime components install once and are used by all of them, which is why installing from the launcher is more reliable than installing each application from a separate archive.
Using the launcher
The launcher lists every application with its size and lets you tick what you want. It installs them in the correct order, handles the shared components, and applies the licensing at the end in one pass rather than per application.
Applications can be added later by running the launcher again and ticking what was skipped. Removing one does not disturb the others, since each installs into its own folder.
Version matching
Everything in this collection is from the same cycle, which matters for the video applications in particular. The dynamic link that connects the editor to the compositor only works when both are from the same year, and installing from one collection guarantees that.
Mixing an application from this collection with a newer standalone install of another is where problems appear. If you want the newest individual releases, install them from their own pages on this site rather than mixing the two approaches.

Installing it
- Free up disk before starting. A full install needs far more than the archive size.
- Suspend real time protection for the entire process, which is long.
- Run the launcher as administrator and tick only the applications you will use.
- Let the licensing pass at the end complete without interrupting it.
- Open one application and confirm no sign-in panel or trial counter appears.

Questions about this release
Do I have to install everything?
No, and you should not. Tick what you will use. Applications can be added later by running the launcher again.
Is this newer than the individual pages on this site?
No. The individual pages carry the current cycle releases. This collection is the 2025 set, kept together so the applications match each other.
Can I mix it with a standalone install?
You can, but dynamic link between the video applications requires matching years. Pick one approach for those.
Does it need an account?
No. Everything is preactivated and no sign-in panel appears.
Comments
Launcher handling the licensing in one pass at the end is much better than the old version.
Everything matches year to year so the video link works. That was my problem with mixing downloads before.
Comments are read before they appear. If a build stops working, say so here and it gets rebuilt rather than quietly left up.
Set a whole machine up from this in one evening. Ticked five applications, ignored the rest.
