I discovered this at the start of lockdown when our hackspace got donated some older iMacs and full copies of CS3. Apparently if you got in contact with them when they first announced the retirement they were giving out activation-free installers to people who could prove ownership. It'd be lovely if someone has these archived somewhere for those of us that weren't quick enough.

  Hi there. I hope this is kosher, but I just added my contact info to my profile ;) I own Photoshop CS3 on Windows and would love to keep using it too!

Why not just pirate at that point?

  Because we're a hackspace so I couldn't risk getting caught doing that. Totally had nothing to do with my failing to find useful OSX installers and cracks for the version we had :)

It will really appreciate if someone has the same but for Windows install. I help a very poor shop and we had the same problem so we are using activators as Adobe won't help anymore.
