[melissa_6800]

So I do or do not try to unintall or delete the Adobe suite / all apps before taking the steps anew to download Reader only and then upgrade to the full Adobe Pro installation? Do you have steps to how to best / fully uninstall/delete what initially added Creative Cloud to my Mac? Thanks!
