Hey guys,

I have a pc with a small SSD and Adobe is feeling my Drive with +60GB of media files

from the adobe cloud. (to Users\username\AppData\... adobe ... Creative cloud libraries\LIBS)
I tired deleting the folder, but it keeps downloading again after every restart!


It's filling the drive so much windows can't keep working (13MB! left) is there a way to prevent 
that of make it download to a diffrent drive??)

Already Disabled Sync and changed the Folder to another drive. Didn't help.. HELP?

yes, open your cc desktop app on the problematic pc

click file>preferences>synching and select the folder (cannot be a drive root) you want to use:

 

 

 

if you've done that (and selected an allowable folder), show a screenshot similar to above.

Thanks for the Quick answer!
I already changed that in the same place.
the folder's location ther is D:\Adobe

but still it saves it to C: User's folder.
I also Paused the Sync, with no effect.

and again, if you've done that (and selected an allowable folder), show a screenshot similar to above.
