Corel PaintShop Pro X9 Ultimate
There have been several postings regarding an alternate to Adobe for processing images. Although I have not used it there are several offers online for Corel PaintShop Pro X9 Ultimate (DVD) at well under $50 USD.
At $44.50 (no state tax collected unless you are ordering from New York) the price from B&H in New York City seems pretty good. This site also has some good information on the program...

I personally use the Adobe subscription service but, if I were looking for a relatively inexpensive editing program, I might consider Corel PaintShop Pro X9 Ultimate...
BTW: the NIK software works with Corel PaintShop Pro X9 Ultimate...

Re: Corel PaintShop Pro X9 Ultimate
I'm not interested in switching (I have the Adobe subscription also), but I am curious how capable this software is. I used it many iterations ago.
Starting in 1991, Paint Shop Pro was written and sold by a family company called Jasc (according to Wikipedia, an acronym for "just another software company"). Corel bought it (again according to Wikipedia) in 2004. It was the first editor I used. I think I had both the last pre-Corel version and one of the early Corel versions.

An updated version Paintshop Pro 2018 has just been released and it has some significant changes. Reviews are fairly good.

Re: Corel PaintShop Pro X9 Ultimate
Paint Shop Pro was my first photo aditor before moving on to Adobe. I have subsequently abandoned Adobe in favour of Affinity Photo which retails at around £50, not much different from PSP.

Re: Corel PaintShop Pro X9 Ultimate
Like Dan, I've used PSP since the early 90's. I've purchased PSP X9 and am very pleased with it. As far as I am concerned, one of its most important abilities is to be able to modify individual pixels. Makes getting rid of cr*p very easy. thoroughly recommend it.
