simply to mention that at windows 8.1 they say upgrade your operating system to windows10 and above.......
its means windows 8.1 is not compatible with PS2021?

Athough Microsoft Offce 2021 works 100% at w8.1 and possibly better than w10 & 11.

PS 2021 and 2022 works perfectly at W10 & 11 but my issue is with w8.1....... they say upgrade your operating system to windows10 and above.......

Further to elaborate my problem is know whether windows8.1 is incompatible with Photoshop 2021 and 2022?

As per Google Adobe Photoshop system requirements Oct 2021 & later releases of Photoshop can run only on Windows 10 64bits & above.. ltsc is not supported.. so yes win 8.1 is not supported.. Let us know if this completes your query

I use Photoshop cs 6 portable version at W 8.1 but many key features are at PS2021........

@ikram62 as stated above if you want to use photoshop 2021,2022 you need to move to win 10 or 11.. or stick with 8.1 for lower versions

The simple answer is "Yes, Photoshop 2021 and 2022 are incompatible with Windows 8.1".
Note that the system requirements have become more stringent every year. Take particular note of the system RAM requirements and of the GPU requirements.

I think that answers the original question so I'm locking the thread.

Try this version

This version works on Windows 7 so my guess is it will work on 8 (try with compatibility mode for windows 7 if it fails).
I haven't tested it personally but you have nothing to lose but time and a few GB.

if you have questions about that version of photoshop, redirect them to that thread.
