Thanks for the link, I'll take a closer look when I have more time. At first glance, the process seems fairly time consuming. Once again - and I understand you're just trying to help - I'm still disappointed Adobe doesn't take better care, as other program developers do, of keeping their installs clean.

Thank you for your reply, but this explanation just doesn't make sense. I still have enough space on my hard drive to work (precisely because I make the effort to keep things tidy by organizing and deleting non-essential files when I can). It's as if Adobe doesn't bother doing so, scattering numerous apps all over the place, leaving useless files behind between updates. The solution shouldn't be to keep increasing available space for obsolete data, the solution should be to eliminate what is not needed.

I agree. But even so, I'm sure some of these 25 apps aren't necessary and I wish I knew which ones I could get rid of.

I've been a Creative Cloud subcriber for a few years (photography plan). I use only 3 apps (PS, Lightroom & Camera Raw). All latest versions. Yet in my system apps, I have a total of 25 Adobe related apps installed, 8 of them which are 32 bits (see screenshots below). I'm guessing a bunch of these could be deleted. don't like unecessary apps cluttering my hard drive. How can I find out which apps I can safely delete? I have a Mac, currently still with Mojave, will soon be updating to Catalina. Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks for your input Rocketbottle. I couldn't agree more, it "really would be basic customer service to give us more information what all these processes are"...

I found a way to close and delete CCXProcess. I followed the instructions found on this site to close the program, then deleted it using CleanMyMac 3. Still would REALLY like knowing WHAT it was and HOW it got in my apps.

Hello everyone, Someone posted this same question a month ago, but no proper explanation was given. I've had installed Adobe cc 2018 for a while now. And just today I noticed "ccxprocess" app appeared on my Mac's Launchpad (the last icon on the below screenshot). It wasn't there before, just appeared sometime in the last few days. I ran a virus scan using Bitdefender, nothing showed up. I tried deleting it using CleanMyMac 3, but it says the program needs to be closed in order to be deleted. I have no way of closing it. Why did it just appear? What's it for? Is it some sort of virus? Does anyone have any insight into this very strange and scary phenomenon? See original discussion here.

Hello, I've been searching for hours to understand, if possible, how to sync certain folders from Lightroom Classic to the CC storage space. I basically want to use the available CC storage space as a backup in case my main hard drive crashes. If I can get this work properly, I'll buy more storage space to increase the default 20 GB. I understand LR doesn't actually store the physical files, only keeps track of all the edits done to the files present in the LR catalogue. But is there a way I could somehow sync certain folders so that files get copied onto the cloud? I don't use Lightroom CC at all. I only use LR Classic and PS on my main laptop. Thank you for you help. Catherine
