Accidentally Deleted All Adobe Files, how do I get my Adobe folders back?

[miggya95954144]

Hello,

I was doing some computer organizing and accidentally deleted all of my adobe files, including installer, applications, etc. Unknowingly, I also emptied out my trash so when I went to check the trash bin, it was not there. I am trying to redownload any adobe apps/ creative cloud again but it still says that I already downloaded the applications and I just have to open them. How do I go about getting back all my adobe folders?

if you have cc version apps follow each step that you can:

uninstall everything cc including preferences, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html

then uninstall the cc desktop app, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html

clean your computer of cc files per http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

restart your computer (don't skip this)

reinstall the cc desktop app, https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud.

if you're unable to install the cc desktop app at this stage, use an administrator account (solution 4 here, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-missing-damaged.html)

use the desktop app to install your cc programs/trials

I have Adobe 7.0 and lost the images to the file foldes and workspace.  How do I get the images back?

Gone. And you can't install Acrobat 7.0 any more any way. Gone gone.

the images you should be able to recover.

it's easy if you deleted and haven't overwritten their storage space.  ie, check your trash and restore you images.
