Hello - We are currently installing CC apps from a package in our SCCM system.  By default when installing these apps, will it automatically remove older versions of the same app?  e.g. When installing Illustrator CC 2015 it will uninstall Illustrator CS5?  Or is there set this behavior in the Adobe CC packager or in in the 'Exceptions' folder?  Or via a command line to add to the installer?

Thanks.

    We are also trying to scrub old version of CS from machines across our organization and have been having no luck. The Adobe CC Cleaner tool does not work as advertised and has zero meaningful documentation. It is disappointing that Adobe hasn't provided more tools or avenues to remove old products in an deployable fashion. If anyone out there can help with a true silent uninstallation method in SCCM that would be helpful. at this point it looks like we will have to work through each product manually and try and uninstall that way via powershell.
