Now updated for Photoshop 2021.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"author\">Written by Steve Patterson.<\/div>\n<p>As an Adobe Creative Cloud subscriber, you always have access to the latest and greatest version of Photoshop. Major Photoshop updates are released every six months or so, and minor updates and bug fixes are released all the time. So in this first  tutorial in my <a href=\"\/basics\/getting-started-photoshop\/\" title=\"Learn more\">Getting Started with Photoshop<\/a> series, you'll learn how easy it is to update Photoshop using the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app.<\/p>\n<p>I show you how to check for Photoshop updates and install them, and how to set up the Creative Cloud app to update Photoshop automatically. You'll also learn how to avoid losing your custom settings when updating to a new version, and how to keep the previous version of Photoshop in case you still need it.<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n.ads-middle { display: inline-block; width:300px; margin:6px 0px 24px 0px; padding-top: 16px; padding-bottom: 16px; }\n@media (max-width: 515px) { .ads-middle { margin:20px 0; } }\n@media (max-width: 480px) { .ads-middle { margin:20px 0; } }\n<\/style><script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6601556224092982\"\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<!-- photo effects 300x250 middle responsive -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle ads-middle\"\n     style=\"display:block\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6601556224092982\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"4216941496\"\n     data-ad-format=\"rectangle\"\n     data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<p>Let's get started!<\/p>\n<aside><p class=\"members-ad-top\"><a href=\"\/print-ready-pdfs\/\">Download all of our Photoshop tutorials as PDFs!<\/a><\/p><\/aside>\n<h3>Step 1: Open the Creative Cloud desktop app<\/h3>\n<p>Photoshop is updated using the Creative Cloud desktop app. If you have <a href=\"https:\/\/adobe.prf.hn\/click\/camref:1100lrdjJ\/destination:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.adobe.com%2Fproducts%2Fphotoshop.html\" title=\"Get Photoshop\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">downloaded and installed Photoshop<\/a> on your computer, the Creative Cloud app is most likely running in the background.

Once the update is complete, we'll confirm that we are in fact running the latest version.<\/p>\n<p>An update may also be available for Photoshop's <strong>Camera Raw plugin<\/strong>. But there's no need to update the plugin separately because it updates automatically with Photoshop:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/basics\/cc\/2020\/update-photoshop\/2021\/photoshop-update-available.png\" alt=\"Checking the version number of the Photoshop update\" width=\"776\" height=\"242\" \/>\n<div class=\"caption\">Checking the update's version number.<\/div>\n<p>To update Photoshop to the latest version, click the <strong>Update<\/strong> button:<\/p>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pe-images.s3.amazonaws.com\/basics\/cc\/2020\/update-photoshop\/2021\/update-photoshop-button.png\" alt=\"How to update Photoshop to the latest version\" width=\"776\" height=\"243\" \/>\n<div class=\"caption\">Clicking the Update button.<\/div>\n<h4>Closing Photoshop before updating<\/h4>\n<p>If Photoshop is open in the background, a warning message tells you that it needs to be closed before the update can continue.
