Removing residual Creative Cloud sync folders & files

New Here ,
Jan 05, 2022 Jan 05, 2022

Hi, I'm using CC on my relatively new Mac. Trying to clean up, I noticed "residual" Creative Cloud sync folders & files consuming a lot of disk space. Not only for my Adobe ID but for other synched IDs, too (see screenshot). Is it possible to delete these CC Synch Folders and the files within, without deleting the corresponding ones in the cloud? Alternatively, can I do a clean slate "reboot" to reinstall a fresh version of CC? Thanks in advance

A small amount of memory is reserved for the Creative Cloud storage system.  But it's negligible. When you delete files, be sure to clear your Deleted Files folders, too.  It's a 2 step process.
