uninstall Adobe CC desktop
Jul 9, 2018 12:25:03 #
I'm trying to uninstall all Adobe products from an old laptop. CC has been deactivated. When I try to uninstall CCDA it says I need to remove all CC apps first. I try that through the Windows programs menu and after a few seconds, whichever program, just blips and stays put. If I want to use the CCDA to remove the apps do I need to activate the machine again and then deactivate? Or can I just log on, uninstall the apps and then uninstall CCDA?

I have no clue, but I’m reasonably sure Adobe.com has your answer.

If this is Windows machine, just go the control panel and find and switch the view to 'category' and click on 'uninstall a program.
Find the Adobe programs in the list and right click to select 'uninstall'.
If it's a Apple computer, I have no clue.

Are you going to keep the laptop or sell/give away? If you are going to keep, then just log out of the Creative Cloud app and leave it alone. If you are giving away the laptop, Windows has a feature to essentially reinstall to OEM condition without any applications.

Hi, Can you please say more about this? I have a couple of windows laptops I would like to give away and this sounds like it could save me a lot of time and effort.
