Adobe STOP SPAMMIMG US!!! This is disgusting. We're paying customers and on every launch we get the upgrade screen. Since this has been for multiple versions now it seems like it is deliberate. Desperate for upgrade money much!? This is ridiculous.
I'm having the same issue. It's annoying. The only options are "Upgrade now" or "Maybe later", neither of which I am interested in. There is a box to tick for "Don't show this message for 30 days", but Photoshop ignores it on next startup. Typical Adobe pestering and pressuring in a greedy money grab.
It's quite frustrating given what we pay Adobe these days that they've known about the fault for a considerable time now and haven't yet resolved it. I've been using Photoshop since v1.1 and this is the first time they've hassled me with adverts through their app.
@kglad I don't think Adobe actually cares whether they're offending customers or not, the days of large companies like Adobe caring about customers are long gone, you only have to see how much they charge for the full package to know they're in it for profit.
it's not clear what departments communicate with each other. eg, i'm doubtful that forum messages work their way to the relevant departments in a timely fashion.
IT's been over a month since first reported. Since that time many users have experienced the same issue. I have went so far as to perform a complete FRESH install of MacOs Sequia. This has nothing to do with setting, CC preferences. And everthing to do with ADOBE. I'm done drinking the Adobe Kool-aide. Get it together. It would be one thing to have the persistant pop-up if you were using a trial, but that's not the case. I opened a case and last week and am still waiting for a scheduled call back to resolve. As if that's not enough, Some ADOBE Empoyees have proudly proclaimed the issue was fixed. This is garbage Adobe. Oh and what great timing as you've announced a price increase! It sure would be nice if Adobe owned the problem. But most likely behind closed doors it's not a problem with ADOBE. just with the users that contribute to their paychecks.
Came here looking for answers to the same issue- my pop up happens randomly, while I'm doing other things on my computer and not actively using Photoshop (but the app is open, no files open)- just intermittenly bouncing the icon on the icon bar to indicate an error/attention. When I go to the app to figure out why I'm getting a notification when no files are open, there it is- this infuriating popup. Thanks Adobe, I hate it.
