Hi all,

On a fairly low end laptop I've always had CC set to NOT launch at Startup.

I have made sure all the settings have remained the same, Unticked "Launch CC at login".  Disabled Adobe services and CCX Process from Startup.

No all the CC Services automatically start around 1 to 2 minutes AFTER booting up the laptop.

Is there a way to stop this?

Win 10 Pro, latest CC Version

once the cc desktop is installed it does a lot of things behind the scenes that you cannot easily control.  your easy option is to not install the cc desktop app (and forego the benefits in exchange for avoiding the drawbacks), or install it and live with it as best you can.

 

if, you want to uninstall it, follow these instructions:

 

contact adobe support* for direct download links for each app you want to install


uninstall every cc app, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html


then uninstall the cc desktop app, again using the correct uninstaller, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html#sa_src=web-messaging


clean your computer of cc files per http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

restart your computer

 

install the downloaded apps
