Dear all,
I am trying to uninstall my old CS6, in full, from macOS Catalina. I am using the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool and the following instructions: https://helpx.adobe.com/sea/creative-cloud/kb/cc-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html. The Cleaner Tool might have cancelled Photoshop, but not the rest of the CS, so I am not sure how to proceed.
In particular, step n. 5 says the following:
In a Terminal window, type the following command:
sudo [Path to Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.app]/Contents/MacOS/Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool ‐‐removeAll= CREATIVECLOUDCS6PRODUCTS.
Since my path is /Applications/Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.app, should my sudo command be the following:
sudo /Applications/Contents/MacOS/Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool ‐‐removeAll= CREATIVECLOUDCS6PRODUCTS.
I have tried the format above and a number of others, but Terminal keeps repeating me "command not found".
Thank you for your help,

Thank you. So, it should be:
sudo /Applications/Contents/MacOS/'Adobe Creative Cleaner Tool' --removeAll=CREATIVECLOUDSCS6PRODUCTS
Unfortunately, it still doesn't work. Would you be able to confirm the exact format command?
Plus, since I am attempting to uninstall the Creative Suite 6 Master Collection, rather than the Creative Cloud, would you have the chance to confirm that this is the right command?
Thank you very much for your help.

It's now a valid command line, but I'm sure the command name is wrong.
For "[Path to Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.app]" you will have something that probably starts /Applications (depends where you put it) and certainly ends .app.
For example
sudo '/Applications/Adobe Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe Creative Cleaner' --removeAll=...
The key thing is to understand how to translate the location you put (or downloaded) the app into the command line needed. Be aware that macOS hides the ".app" at the end of every app name but the command line needs it.
