File Syncing control within CCD package creation

[Scott Burbine]

I am happy to see a level on control for File Syncing within the "Create a Package".
As an IT Administrator I do not need to disable it completely for my users, but I would very much like to toggle OFF Automatic syncing when they log into CCD, as they log into multiple workstations at times. I would prefer they need to manually activate syncing after logging into CCD.

I would also like to see control within CCD for designating the folder location. As my C: drives are SSD and not very large, we have installed spindle D drives to handle Desktop, Documents, and Downloads associated with the user profile.

Hello Scott,

I think we have an option in the creative cloud desktop app under preferences wherein the end-users can change the installation location. They generally get a prompt/window to select the location when trying to save the files locally on the machine so that can choose any location to save it.

@SuJoshi I hope this message finds you well. That is great from a user perspective, but not from that of an Administrator. We have since moved on to larger NVMe drives, and Adobe has since disabled syncing, but the idea of configuring Preferences as an Administrator is still desireable. Since IT controls the installation of Apps, the "App Updates" notification is an example of what it would be great to globally turn off.
