If you had Topaz and other products installed and then installed Photoshop and Lightroom, it will not come up in the adobe products. You will need to install Topaz after you have Photoshop installed. Or try just reinstalling Topaz now that you have Photoshop installed.
1: Have you had experience with DxO Pure RAW, and if so, what are your impressions?
Yes, I have downloaded the trial version and at first, it looked like it was over sharping my images. After further research and review, I determined that what I seeing was greater detail in my images. Now I try not to shot at high ISOs so I have not been able to test and see what happens, e.g., maybe less detail shows up. I do have a concern with this software since my workflow consists of LR and photoshop (when need), transiting to PureRaw from LR and back is complicated.
2: If you currently subscribe to TOPAZ Sharpen and/or Noise Reduction products, would you purchase Pure Raw
Yes, I own both Topaz products, but DXO PureRaw should only be compared to Topaz DeNoise AI. Each product has its merits, but for DXO PureRaw may be the best product for removing noise and it works faster than Topaz.

Are you having color problems? Like photos & prints don't look the same? Do a lot of photo editing in programs like Lightroom & Photoshop? Do you print at home or send your photos out for print. If so then a monitor you can calibrate & a calibrator device from X-RITE or Data Color would be needed also & would help with accurate & consistent color. I picked up a wide monitor made by LG a few years back for a little over $200 that has a spec of over 90% on the sRGB & Adobe RGB color space & calibrate it several times a year & it does pretty good. But I long for a BenQ monitor. Dell has some that are pretty good also. If your happy with the results you get now, don't worry about it.

Quick question: what is your camera set for, i.e., sRGB or Adobe RGB?
Any update to the Portrait module? Can one mask out or in people in a picture and run, e.g., body or face?
I'm thinking about requesting a refund also, (and since they have a 30-day money guarantee) I'll wait until Jan 12, 2021, to make my final decision. I bought this program to assist me with portraits additional processing which was based on a Youtube video I saw on Oct. 28, 2020, from Anthony Morganti. This video was showing the features of the pre-release version. The feature that I liked was the local mask function to isolate people in a portrait and perform various actions on that one person in the group, e.g., eye color. Well, that function was not available final release on Dec. 15th. and this is a game-changer. I looked on their Community Forum and all it states is that feature does not exist. Well they have until Jan. 12, to produce it.

What is 128 bts of memory?
Typo: should have been 128GBs of memory
Also, the desktop has 10th Gen Intel® Core™ i9
YES - very slow at start-up. I bought a new computer w/ 128bts of memory, SSD drives and Nvdia 2080 video card. I have contacted Creative Cloud and the issues still happen - slow start-up. In fact, I contacted them twice- once for my five-year-old Window 10 computer and next for the 1-month-old new computer. This is getting to be very frustrating especially now that I know I'm not the only one having this problem.
I had the same problem when I update and the correction was: I was opening the old version, go to the Creative Cloud Desktop, and click on updates (left side) now if you have updated photoshop you will see Photoshop v22.0 open it. The problem was my desktop icon was still pointing to the older version it was not updated.
My question is if one uses the Tamron Tap-in Console correct a tamron lens of Camera A, will those adjustments be suitable/correct when that lens is used on Camera B? Lets say Camera is a full frame and camera B is a APC.
I have had problems installing and updating Luminar 4. Luminar’s customer support tells me it's my internet/firewall, but the workaround has been for them to send me the file(s) with a msi extension in lieu of exe extension.

You might want to look that up again. In the DXOMark database, the 135 f2L’s sharpness (on a Canon 5D4) is listed as 24, while the EF 100 f2 is listed at 19.
My bad, I was addressing the overall score not sharpness.
Based om DXOMark the EF 100mm F/2 is sharper than EF 135mm F/2 L lens. This lens is smaller, cheaper and it should have been listed as L glass.
I would start by doing a reset on my YN devices and ensure that I have the latest firmware installed.
When traveling with my camera local or international, I never use a camera slap the advertises the camera manufacturer, e.g., Canon. I also carry two camera bags: one for carrying all my gear for the trip, and a small bag for when I'm out taking pictures. Also, I put my lenses and flash unit in a safe.
Got it fixed, thanks to Wacom. I had to un-check and re-check the windows ink box in the Wacom tablet properties pannel. Thanks all for your feedback and suggestion.
