Just use Topaz Photo AI and it will do great - I wouldn't think of working on an image and not using it

I denoise first as per Topaz and others. It helps to see details when post processing especially in noisy photos.

First, this is a late March post and JimmyT's response is based on 2019 information on some products from Topaz that I do not believe are even available any more. Please note, this is not Jimmy T's fault but Topaz not providing a clear direction and path.
My take is Topaz AI wants to be run first as it addresses all issues (correctly or not) including areas that you want to crop out. I am not a fan of this so far. Also it poses additional problems in LRC. I like to edit and depending on noise and sharpen issues, I elect at the end to elect DeNoise or Sharpen...it is possible to use both. I also like to "round trip" from LRC to PS\Topaz and back and this is not possible in Topaz AI.
The value of Topaz is clear, I have yet to see an image in competition where the shooter did not use Topaz.
Hope this helps, Cliff

Cliff, I was responding to the Original Poster's (OP) question.
OP Question: MS. DONNA wrote:
"hello do yall run denosie before you process your images or do you edit them then run through denoise?"
I was just providing links to the question regarding the no-longer-sold software.
I need to visit the Topaz Products page a little more frequently because they do have a whole new page dedicated to Photo AI 3, Video AI 5, and Gigipixel AI 7.
The Very Thorough Topaz Learning Center is now: https://www.topazlabs.com/learn
Cliff, sometimes my posts are not very clear. However, I do appreciate your keeping me honest.
Best Wishes,

PS: Every time I post anything about Topaz Products I sound like a Huge Fan Boy.
From my perspective, I Love Anything that works well, and Topaz Photo AI 3 works Great!

No need denoise (Topaz AI) something you don't plan to use - but nothing goes to that hasn't been through AI

Jimmy T, you are on target. I am near Dallas and Topaz management and I have been trying to arrange a time to meet for 2 months. The reality is they seem to wish to abandon the separate products and focus on all in one. There is a problem here. You cannot round trip. Once a file has been impacted, certain approaches to processing in LRC are gone (lens adjustment, As Shot is altered and more). Also I want results based on how I see the image. Example, you take an image that has a bright sun filled window that will be cropped out, I want to do the image after crop...list goes on and on.
Topaz needs to provide clear path as to what is to happen next. I am going to guess MS next windows operating system will be called "12"...just a guess.

Cliff, I think that we are in violent agreement.
Please keep us up to speed on what you find out about Topaz and their plans for the future.
Also, thank you for your kind responses.
