How can I change the Creative Cloud Download Cache?

[Lenzbert]

Hi, I have problem with updating my Creative Cloud Programs.

So here is the thing:

All my Creative Cloud Stuff is installed on my G: drive because my C: only has 60 GB and is mostly full. Now, when I want to update for example Photoshop, Creative Cloud wants to download it in a cache on my C: drive. But as I said, it only has like 1 GB of free space, the update cancels and I get an error message which tells me to make more space. But that's simply impossible.

Now I wanted to change the cache directory. I came across a solving method which said, that I had to change my browser download path. The thing was, I already changed it to my F: drive. I also changed all the download directorys of my other browsers, but it's still now working.

I hope you guys can help me out, because I'm not able to contact the Adobe Support (don't ask me why).

Please forgive my bad english. I hope you can read it anyway 🙂

The best solution is to get a larger C drive.

I know, but I don't have the money to afford a new SSD with more space. Isn't there any other way to change this?

So I finally managed to contact the Adobe Support. And their only way of troubleshooting is to buy a bigger drive or make some space.

That was not the answer I was hoping for but I think I have to accept that. So everyone who has the same problem as me: Stop waisting your time on searching another method to solve this problem. There is no other way to solve this problem...
