Stop putting icons on my desktop.

Dear Adobe,

Since we now have no choice but to use the creative cloud application, please stop putting an icon on my desktop without asking every time you update something. That is so Windows XP. Mac users may like it, buy I run a clean Windows ship and would appreciate having some choice in the matter. Anything else is just rude. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Icon Free and Loving It

It is now April 2023 and this is still a problem. By the way, forum expert, the feature request page link you keep posting provides zero value, and in fact, redirects you back to this very same forum.

 

To anyone reading who is sick of dealing with a company that clearly doesn't care and problems that will obviously never be solved, I highly recommend looking into new tools that are being developed such as Midjourney, or perhaps Canva. Maybe it's time to leave this legacy brand and all of it's baggage in the past where it belongs!

Wow! Just reading kglad's responses is cringworthy. I'd recommend reporting his comments to put a stop to this childish behavior to members that are trying to solve a problem.

Kglad, why do you bother to contribute these posts dismissing people's problems? You know what your comment sounds like? It sounds like: "Shutup and don't point out problems we are having with this product, because I want to ingratiate myself with Adobe by being a good little Karen who berates people for daring to complain." Every forum has someone like you, wearing the company t-shirt and trying to look like an expert by shooting down complaints instead of offering  concrete solutions. If you have no problems, why don't *you* shut up? This forum is for people trying to resolve problems. If you live in an Adobe Land full of frolicking pink bunnies & unicorns and you have no feedback to offer other than "your problem doesn't matter because you are out on the thin tail where no one else lives", you don't belong here.

kglad, community expert or troll? Your comments are pointless and antagonistic towards a group of already irritated users.

 

I don't need a whole family of programs running continuously from Adobe, I just want to open my Adobe programs when I need them, and shut them down when I'm done. Its not complicated.
