Hi,

Uninstallation of Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop is not happening silently. I am not able to find any silent parameters which can be given to the below executable:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Creative Cloud\Utils\Creative Cloud Uninstaller.exe"

Can you please let me know if there are any silent parameters to be given to uninstall Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop application?

Thanks,

Sathish

    Step 1

    From the settings option in the start bar, go to settings by clicking on it.

    In the settings menu, select “Apps”

    This is not correct.  I created a package that contained only the desktop application and attempted to remove it using the MSI file with the /qn and nothing happened until I removed the /qn, at which point I was prompted to answer "Do you really want to uninstall the desktop application".

    If you have removed all of the CC apps then you can uninstall the CC Desktop App using the instructions at the following link.

    Hi Sathish,

    Adobe creative cloud desktop app can't be uninstalled silently if it was installed individually from web. You can create a package for creative cloud desktop app only through creative cloud packager and install using package installer. You can uninstall the desktop app silently this way and can use the command  msiexec /x "name of package.msi" /qn

    Thanks,

    Hi Ashish,

    I have tried to build such package. When I install the package I get two uninstall entries in reg:
        • one for the package (in the 64Bit Path)
        • one for the desktop application (in the 32Bit Path) (HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Adobe Creative Cloud)

    How do I get silently rid of this part Software?

    Thanks

    Sebastian
