Adobe CEF Helper running at 3% CPU constantly

Why does Adobe CEF helper run constantly at 3% CPU when there are no adobe applications open? I do not have lightroom or photoshop open.

Hi there,

 

We are sorry for the delay. Are you still experiencing the issue? If yes, could you please let us know which version of the operating system are you working on?

Try the steps mentioned below to stop Adobe CEF helper from running in the background.

 

  1. Open Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop
  2. Click on your Profile Picture.
  3. Click on Preferences
  4. Under General, toggle the switch against Launch Creative Cloud at login to the Off position
  5. Click Done & restart the computer, check if that helps.
