This is marked as a correct answer, it is not.
If I start the application manager by itself, not from Bridge nor CS6, I get the following disturbing message:
Adobe creative cloud is needed to resolve this problem.
However, it is missing or damaged. Please download and install a
new copy of Adobe creative cloud from
'http//www.adobe.com/go/adobecreativecloudapp'
I do not wish to pursue the CC model.
I want ALL updates available for CS6.
I want this to this to work.
So, ACR 8.5 is NOT available for CS6 ?
