To uninstall Adobe Creative Cloud, follow these steps:
Uninstalling Adobe Creative Cloud Applications
Before uninstalling the main Creative Cloud application, you'll first need to uninstall any individual apps you have installed (Photoshop, Illustrator etc).
Here's how you can do that:
-
Open the Creative Cloud desktop app. You can find this in your system tray (Windows) or menu bar (macOS).
-
Navigate to "Apps" -> "All Apps". This will display a list of all your installed Adobe applications.
-
Locate the application you wish to uninstall. For example, 'Photoshop'.
-
Click on the "More Actions" icon next to the app's name. This is usually represented by three dots. A context menu will appear.
-
Select "Uninstall" from the context menu.
-
Confirm the uninstallation. You might be presented with a dialog box with options like "Cancel", "Remove", or "Keep". Select your preferred option.
- Cancel: Stops the uninstall process.
- Remove: Uninstalls the selected application completely.
- Keep: Retains some application settings and/or files, which might be useful if you plan to reinstall later.
Uninstalling the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop Application
Once you've uninstalled all your individual Adobe applications, you can then remove the main Creative Cloud application. You can normally do this via your operating system's usual application uninstallation method (ie: Control Panel on Windows, Applications folder on macOS). However, for completeness you can also uninstall using the Creative Cloud application.
-
Open the Creative Cloud Desktop Application.
-
Click on your profile icon (usually in the top right of the application).
-
Select "Uninstall".
-
Follow the instructions that appear on screen to confirm the uninstallation.
By following these steps you can successfully uninstall the main Creative Cloud application as well as all the individual applications it supports.
