Question

Install Creative Cloud to Drive other than C:

Hi all. As the title suggests I'm trying to install Creative Cloud onto a drive that isn't my C: drive. I can't seem to find this option anywhere and after scowering the forums I only find answers to installing the apps to a different drive, not the Creative Cloud app itself. I am trying to keep my C: drive completely clean besides holding drivers and my operating system.

>any idea why they did this?

 

I don't work for Adobe but I do read a lot of messages, so all I can say is that the cloud manager, and common parts that are used by the programs, must be installed on the boot drive

Even if you install apps on secondary drives, you still need adequate space on your primary (boot) drive for installation files.   Read the system requirements.
