Why can't I close the creative cloud? If I hit x it's still open, if I quit through the menu it's still running in task manager, if I quit in task manager there are 8 other Adobe things running. I just want to be able to close the creative cloud window and actually quit and stop the processes. I'm currently using Photoshop and I don't have the Creative Cloud app open at all. I shouldn't need to quit, end task, etc. and still have the app running for some reason. I constantly have to turn off the automatic updates as well.
