Question

Two Adobe accounts

I've got two Adobe accounts but only 1 windows PC:

1. A personal account with a photography subscription which allows me access to PS & LR etc for personal photography use

2. A work account which allows me access to Acrobat DC which I need for my job

 

Each is associated with a different email address.

 

My company has set up the work account so I'm not able to add the photography subscription, even if I pay for it myself. Each time I flip between accounts (i.e. logout of one profile in Creative Cloud Desktop and log into the other) I have to download the software packages again. Yesterday it took about 20 mins to download Photoshop for example. 

 

Is there any way around this? A way I can access both accounts at the same time or prevent having to download PS / LR each time I need them?

Which packages do you have to download? Ideally, you should install every software that you need, once you login using the account that has a particular software subscribed it will work and the software's that are not subscribed by the currently logged-in account would not work. So it should be just about logging in with the correct account and installing the applications just once.

    Thanks Manan. I've done a couple of restarts and that does seem to be the case now. PS downloaded about 3 times yesterday as I flipped between accounts!!
