Creative cloud - enable apps auto update remotely

[Arthur34348829mnsn]

Is there a way to enable auto-update remotely via Regedit or another setting? Rather than opening and contacting each user to do it manually? We don't have Self-Serice installed.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

@Arthur34348829mnsn you should be able to set that when creating your deployment packages in the Admin console.

we don't have self-service implemented as yet. Id there any other way?

Please confirm how the apps are deployed/installed on the user's machine. 

If the users have install and update permission on the machine, you can either create a new managed package, check the option to enable the auto-update the apps and deploy it, or (for Enterprise) you can enable the "AUTOMATICALLY UPDATE ALL APPLICATIONS" option under the Permissions tab. 

Here is the help article for more details: https://helpx.adobe.com/enterprise/using/manage-self-service-policies.html

Note: the above steps will just enable/activate the Auto-Update option for the end-users, it is up to the end-users if they want to enable it for the installed apps or not.
