Photoshop Elements 2020 Re-Enables Media Analysis

[DP*]

When I installed PSE2020 I explicitly disabled all media analysis (no face recognition, no Smart Tags, no Auto Creations).

This morning PSE 2020 alerted me that it had generated Auto Creations. I went into preferences and saw in Preferences -> Media Analysis that it had re-enabled itself. Presumably this was done by the recent update to PSE. Adobe should not do this - do not re-enable something I explicitly disabled.

Auto analysis does not work particularly well and is a resource hog. I do not want it. Adobe needs to respect those preferences. I reset the preferences and, just to be sure, I renamed away Elements Auto Creations 2020.exe so it can never run again.

Thanks, much apprectiated. Good to know that it's not just me experiencing this obnoxious behavior by PSE. One difference: I was not asked to re-enter my serial number during the update.
