Hello,

If the user has the right to install and update apps then they would be able to install and update it. As an admin, you can always create a package from the admin console and deploy it on the user's machine silently.

    My plan was to Silently Upgrade the users Creative Cloud desktop application Silently, but also have it silently auto update itself in the future.    

    So far exporting a package from the AdminConsole, running CCDA it does not toggle the 'always keep creative cloud app up to date'.   

    interesting, manually running the .msi does not install.   I had to use the Setup.exe.    

    Right now our users Self-serve download from the adobe document cloud website link.   From my understanding this way the bundled CCDA does not allow auto updating to be turned on?

     

    i keep getting conflicting answers.

    The user generally gets a prompt about the update of the creative cloud desktop app and will update automatically and there is no option to disable the prompt. It is up to the user if they want to install the CC apps using the creative cloud desktop app which is like a silent update that happens within the tool.

     

    As an admin, you can use switches like /qn or /silent for the silent installation of the package.
