P: Annoying Expand your toolkit with Creative Cloud All Apps- How to stop?

For the last week or two Adobe has been popping up ads to "upgrade my plan" in Photoshop. (Seriously guys? I already pay for this software, there are cheaper and/or free alternatives coming out every day, and you're spamming us to suck more money? You think this is a good idea?) There is a "stop for seven days" check box (hidden, that you have to scroll down to see), but no option for "[removed by moderator]" How do I stop these? Or, rather, I should say, is there a way to stop these other than dumping my Adobe subscription altogether, which is what it seems Adobe is trying to get me to do?

Im also getting this. Was hoping it would end after the black friday but pops up everytime I reset ps. Why am I getting spammed by a product I'm paying for with no way to opt out. I disabled the settings in CC but had no effect.

The pop up ads are an extremely unwelcome component of my experience in Photoshop, and the "turn off for 7 days" toggle is icing on the cake.

Remove this. I am a professional who is already paying for your product, and I am opening Photoshop to get work done. I am paying for the software that I need. I do not want to be upsold to while I'm at work. Completely infuriating.

I couldnt agree more! Adobe, I am already paying fully for your services, and want them withoput having to put up with your nagging that I should buy more. Enough, is enough.

I've the same problem, they said to wait 24/48hours to resolve the problem yesterday, but today I've received just one mail that  suggested to visit this thread.

This is also happening to me and it's really annoying to the point where I'm consdering just using something else besides photoshop. Why am I getting pop up ads for a product I already pay for, with no way to opt out of them? The adobe team has been "investigating" this for weeks now with no update

I am getting non stop pop ups every day in photoshop telling me about the black friday sale in creative cloud. I have tried selecting "do not show again for 7 days" and tried turning off notifications in my creative cloud settings. I still get these every day.

I pay for CC already, why am i getting spam ads telling me about sales that I can't opt out of?

Something tells me the team is "investigating it" by doing literally nothing and they'll "fix it" when the Black Friday deals are done.

These ads are making me seriously consider leaving Adobe for anything else. Most people don't seem to care about ads (Netflix with ads really took off), but I can't stand them. It's just going to keep getting worse and blocking workflows. Don't encourage them by clicking on the the upgrade or view plans buttons.

This [removed by moderator] pop up doesn't make me want to upgrade, it makes me want to cancel! So fed up with having it showing its ugly face every time I open my laptop, whether or not I tick the box makes no difference whatsoever. What are you guys thinking??? The more you put it in front of our faces, the more we're likely to upgrade just to get rid of it?
