I occasionally use Autodesk Inventor and Photoshop still. I’ve got a Windows 10 LTSC virtual machine set up just for that. I don’t even let it connect to the internet. Any file I need to work on in there I just drag and drop them in and out of the VM. It’s like keeping a pet Windows that you can use whenever you need it but it’s kept confined in a vivarium so it cannot wander into your house and crap some bloatware on your carpet.
Another amusing analogy I have for it is that I’m keeping it locked in the Matrix. It thinks it’s enjoying a big juicy steak but really it’s locked up in a virtual world so it can be used by me without ever being able to seeing or affecting the outside world.
