how much memory is required?

Correct answer Del Z

I thought it was a simple question to ask how much hard drive space is

needed to load all of the creative cloud programs that are part of Lightroom

CC.  Normally, one purchases software and is provided in the specs the

amount of hard drive space required.  That¹s all I am asking.

Hi Welewis123,

It depends on what you install. For most Adobe programs the hard drive storage required is nominal and pretty much any computer that meets the system requirements for CC2015 will be suitable. If you want specifics, the size of the installed media is listed on this page: Adobe CC 2015 Direct Download Links: Creative Cloud 2015 Release | ProDesignTools. I wish I could give you a hard and fast number, but hopefully that gives you an idea.

Best,

Del

As you said, it's a simple question and Adobe can't anwser it. It's always like that with them. 

I posted the anwser here.

No way I give the answer here for help Adobe.

MINIMUM System requirements for Cloud Programs... scroll down and check each program

Depending on the program (such as Premiere Pro) you should double the minimums... or more, depending on the video you are editing

thanks for replying.  What is the total for all the creative cloud programs?  I am operating with OS operating system.

There is not a "total for all" since your operating system takes care of task switching between programs that are active in memory and on hold waiting for you to go back to the program

And "OS operating system" means nothing... Mac or Windows are operating systems... Mac 10.11.2 is a version, as is Windows 10

Or... are you asking about the hard drive space needed to install all the Cloud programs? (hard disk space is not the same as memory)
