Disable Cloud

[#1]

Hello,

I work for an organization that does not allow "Cloud-based" software. Is there in option within Photoshop CC in which you can choose not to install the cloud features, or to disable them once installed? We can only have localized software on the machine.

Thanks!

Hi coreydep,

Adobe Creative cloud desktop app helps you activate your apps and also in keeping them up to date, you can definitely choose to turn off sync and nothing will be synced to Cloud.

However, the applications connect to server once in 30 days to make sure you have your products activated and up and running in order to do that it needs internet connection.

Cloud features are optional it is not necessary to use the cloud space as that is given to you as a part of your subscription but you can choose not to use them.

See how you can turn OFF sync feature in Creative cloud app: Synchronize settings using Creative Cloud

The given answer is not longer correct. The option to disable cloud syncing has been removed. You can pause it, but not completely disable it.
