Access Creative Cloud Without Updating It

I wish to access creative cloud without updating it, as my drive has literally no storage space left to update. 

 

Is there a way to remove the update screen so I can use Creative Cloud without updating it?

    I am sorry, Evany, but mandatory updates to the Creative Cloud desktop app have to be applied. If you are that short on disk space, you will quickly encounter other problems with the computer's everyday functions. Please free up additional space on the volume that contains the operating system. You can use the system requirements listed in https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/system-requirements.html to guide how much space must be available.

     

    You can customize the installation location, for Creative Cloud Desktop applications, in the Creative Cloud desktop app. However, disk space will still be required to complete the download and install process on the same drive/volume that contains the operating system.

    This feature from adobe stinks, as in the organization I manage it's not possible to update the Desktop app every 4 days or what ever it is......

      I agree 100%!!!! I am on a government education computer network and I am unable to do updates of any kind to my computer! If I do, it all gets reset at the end of the day when all computers reboot. Now I am behind on my updates(which Adobe won't give me advanced notification of) and I can't get CC launched until it gets it's dam update becuase I stupidly turned on "Keep CC updated" in my preferences. I want to turn it off but I can't get CC to run so I can turn it off!!! We are discussing moving to Final Cut Pro just to avoid all the BS we have endured with their licencing software!
