I just installed CC.  The default location for the Creative Cloud Files folder is C:\users\name\Creative Cloud Files.  Can I move it to another location and still retain sync capabilities?

    Correct answer Ken G. Rice

    Yes.

    From the Creative Cloud desktop application open the Preferences and switch from the General tab to Creative Cloud tab. Then switch from Apps to Files below that. Under Folder Location you can change it.

    sorry to revive again,

    but since 2022 it appears the syncing tab has been removed, is this function still available? I have found myself in the same situation.
