Node.exe high cpu usage, what to do?

Each time I boot the Windows, I have a process, node.exe, from Creative Cloud Desktop, that keep my cpu at high usage, even if I didn’t opened any Adobe app, this stay for 40-60 minutes. I reset the settings to default in CC app, I uninstall and reinstall it, still same problem. Any way to fix this?

specs: Windows 11, cpu 9800x3d, 64gb ddr5, latest bios for motherboard, only legit software...
