Cannot change folder installation

Hello, when I download a app on my windows 10 computer it automatically installed under one drive folder that is bound to my hotmail account. The problem is that those apps are too big and it takes all space on my Onedrive.

I decided to change installation folder to HDD on my computer however it keeps installing on my one drive folder and not on my HDD.

How can I change this?

Thanks in advance.

Uninstall every Adobe Application

Adobe software and other downloads

Download Adobe Application manager and install it in the drive where you want to install the adoAd Applications

Now install Creative Cloud desktop application

Download Creative Cloud desktop app

Once it get install

Open the Creative Cloud desktop application > Click on three dot near your profile icon > Preferences > Creative Cloud > Apps > Change the install location from there

Let me update about the results.

Ok,what is the problem folder, the OneDrive folder, and what do you see there?

Apps should be installed under c:\program files\adobe, which should not be a OneDrive folder.


What is the app you are installing and what is the folder it is installing to?

Hello thanks for your reply,

I'm mainly using CC illustrator as well as photoshop.

I've changed in the settings location.

If I go to the directory you told me I only see photoshop however I've installed dreamweaver Illustrator and CC design...
