Disable Notification Manager for Adobe Creative Cloud

Hello,

 

Adobe Creative Cloud is terribly intrusive, we would simply like to have Acrobat and Photoshop with this. Having said that the ABSOLUTLEY WORST THING is the UWP app installation in the Start Menu called "Notification Manager for Adobe Creative Cloud", why:

 

(1) the title is rediculously long should be two words max!

(2) clicking it just opens Creative Cloud and there is a shorcut anyhow!

(3) if it is uninstalled then Creative Cloud just adds it back

 

ALL OUR USERS want the option to not see this in the start menu. This can be done by either:

(1) providing a user preference to not install the "Notification Manager for Adobe Creative Cloud" app.

(2) installing the app but within the manifest for this app go to the VisualElements element and add the attribute AppListEntry="none"

 

PLEASE SORT THIS NONSENSE OUT ASAP IT IS SO BAD WE ARE CONSIDERING DITCHING ADOBE CREATIVE CLOUD PRODUCTS ALL TOGETHER!

posting in an ideas forum implies you are not requesting help/work-arounds. you are asking adobe to change something.

 

for help/work-arounds post in a discussions forum.

Hello,

I have the same issue when rebuilding a new version of Adobe Acrobat Pro, Im guessing it'll be the same when I rebuild the other Adobe packages.
The original script does not work for the removal of Notification Manager:
Get-AppxPackage -AllUsers *AdobeNotificationClient* | Remove-AppxPackage -AllUsers

I need this uninstalled and removed from the Start Menu for all users.
If anyone knows how to remove this when the application is installed, that would be great!

Many thanks
