Where is the creative cloud, customhook and creative cloud helper program supposed to be located?

Question

Can't find a clear place where these files are supposed to go.  I was trying to disable this by putting the file in my trash bin, and now I need to put it back where it goes to disable this BS. A lot of these adobe programs running in the background are causing major problems on a brand new macbook. Absolutely unneccessary simply to run photoshop and illustrator.

never delete executable files unless you are know what you're doing. rename them first (i like to prepend a $ sign) to disable their execution. after a few computer restarts and a week or two of computer usage, if there are no problems, you can usually delete them then. but it's still a good idea to leave them in the trash for a long while so you can restore (and rename) them if needed.

so, if you didn't empty your trash folder, restore the deleted files from the trash folder.
