To delete all files from Adobe, follow these steps within the specific Adobe application you are using (e.g., Adobe Document Cloud, Adobe Creative Cloud):
- Open the Adobe Application: Launch the Adobe application where your files are stored (e.g., Adobe Document Cloud website, Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app).
- Navigate to the Files Section: Locate the area within the application that displays your list of files. This is usually labeled "Files," "Documents," or something similar.
- Select All Files:
- Click on the checkbox next to the first file to select it.
- Scroll to the last file in the list.
- Hold down the Shift key on your keyboard and click on the checkbox next to the last file. This will select all files between the first and last selected files.
- Delete the Selected Files:
- Look for a "Delete" button or icon. It is usually represented by a trash can.
- Click the "Delete" button.
- Confirm Deletion: A confirmation dialog box will likely appear asking you to confirm that you want to delete the selected files. Click "Yes," "Delete," or the appropriate confirmation option.
- Empty the Trash/Recycle Bin (If applicable): Some Adobe applications or operating systems may move the deleted files to a trash or recycle bin. To permanently delete them, you'll need to empty the trash/recycle bin.
Important Considerations:
- Which "Adobe?" This answer assumes you are referring to files stored within an Adobe service like Adobe Document Cloud or Adobe Creative Cloud. If you are referring to deleting Adobe software from your computer, the process is different and would involve uninstalling the software through your operating system's settings.
- Cloud vs. Local Files: Be aware if you're deleting files stored only in the cloud, or local files on your computer synced to the cloud. Deleting cloud files may not remove the original files from your computer (depending on your sync settings).
- Permanence: Deleting files this way is often permanent. Ensure you have backups of anything you may need in the future before deleting.
- Account Deletion: If your goal is to remove everything Adobe-related, including your account and subscription, that is a separate process that involves contacting Adobe support and/or cancelling your subscription.
