Is it possible to uninstall CC and reinstall all the apps on a drive other than C?
My C drive is desperately short of space but I have a spare drive that I can install if I can move some programs to it.

Whitbywoof and Darmstrong, I am sorry but Error Code 120 indicates that there is insufficient disk space on the drive.  Even if you have another drive/partition the download and install process will still require sufficient disk space to complete the download and install process.  Also shared components will be installed on the same drive/partition that contains the operating system.

 

Please clean up space on the primary drive/partition or use a different computer to install the Adobe CC applic

Yes, you can install all the apps you want on any other drive of your choice.

All you have to do is uninstall CC and then while installing it when it gives you the choice for the path of installing the program files you can choose the path of, for instance, D:user/program/files/... instead of C:program/files/...

 

Know that this is possible with any app of your choice. But you need to know that you cannot alter the folders and their content or else your apps would not run properly.

I hope this helps.

I never got an option to choose an alternative drive.  Is there some other solution or a way to force the choice?

Same here - that's why I asked. I tried it this morning and when I clicked on INSTALL it started the installation straight away without offering any options.

If I don't get a solution to this I'll have to get a refund on the product.  I can't use it this way.

With an earlier version I tried to move the installation file to my E:\ drive, but that didn't work either.

I tried opening the CC desktop app and opening the "Settings" (gear icon) in the upper right corner.  There is allows a redirection of the install, but when I tried to install, I get an error 101 message and the option to retry.  Doesn't work.
