I will never save to your Cloud

Exactly. They are pushing this to serve their own interests, not ours. If they ever make it mandatory, I will end my Adobe Subscription. I don’t think I’ve ever hated them more. Fortunately, alternatives are now available. Da Vinci is a very good alternative to Premiere. Others are coming.

How can I disable the "save to creative cloud" pop up that comes up EVERY TIME I try to save a new document? I dont' use creative cloud, I only save to my computer. After the last two updates, photoshop has this pop up EVERY [inappropriate language removed] TIME I try to save something and I have to click "On my computer" button, EVERY [inappropriate language removed] TIME. I've searched through the preferences to no avail, I can find no way to turn this stupid "Save to creative cloud" off. 

And another thing. Since the last two updates to photoshop, it takes forever to load the program and start working. Not forever actually, but it does take about 10 seconds or more after the the program is loaded before any of the tools are avaliable, and for the libraries panel to populate.

These are two highly annoying bugs that really need to be fixed. This junk just started with the last two updates to photoshop. And I'd like it fixed.

My bigger issue is how certain features—like share for review—are useless unless the files are saved to the cloud.

I get it Adobe, you want us in your ecosystem. The problem is that many design shops already have ecosystems that—logistically speaking—aren't easy to give up or migrate from.

You can opt-out permanently. Just go to Preferences and set the default to "On your Computer".

You won't be asked again.

Go to Preferences- File handling and change the save preference from cloud to your computer.

We don't use the cloud here at work. We have a network that we work off of for our saved projects. Please quit telling me what I need. I don't want cloud. I don't use cloud. Turn it off.

I've been using Photoshop since the 90s... I've been using CC since its inception..... I haven't updated anything. Yesterday it was working as usual. Today, I tried to save a file and this happened.

And now you know how to fix it. Case closed, issue fixed, correct answers provided, ranting done with. 

The question you should ask yourself d2 is why do the majority of users who rant on the forums at Adobe (pointless, it's a user-to-user forum) have the inability to RTFM before ranting? KNOCK IT OFF!

Welcome to this friendly user-to-user support forum d2.

I don't think it's true that the majority of users "hate [Adobe's] guts".

No one is forcing you to use the application!

Actually, there is a small change to default Save behavior - but it's easy enough to reject. Set this first:

Then on next save, do as above. Then you shouldn't be bothered with it again. I haven't.

Yes, I agree, and no, I don't like it either. But that's the way it is now.
