Evented I/O for V8 JavaScript, is it safe?

After opening Photoshop CC (14.1.2) I receive a Window Security Alert stated that Windows Firewall has blocked some feature of this app. The details are as follows: Windows Firewall has blocked some of the features of Evented I/O for V8 Javascript on all public and private networks. The publisher is Joyent, Inc. and the path is C:/program files/adobe/adobe photoshop cc (64 bit)/photoshop-node.exe. My question, is it safe to allow Evented I/O for V8 to communicate on private and/or public networds?

    OK, I will try to explain easily the workaround proposed by annexa89826053

    1. Go to here and download process explorer: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/processexplorer.aspx

    2. You will get a .zip file that you need to extract to a normal windows folder -> Right click extract

    3. Run the file procexp.exe

    4. Accept the  license terms

    5. Once the Process Explorer is running you can select from the list a process called: node.exe (green icon)

    6. right click node.exe and select Suspend

    DONE !

    Hope this helps

    This fix does work, thank you, but I have had to do it each time I sign on to my computer.  The error message comes up without opening any of the CC Apps.

    If you go to Youtube.com and do a search on "How do disable adobe apps at startup in windows" Assuming you are using windows and NOT Apple computer. You will find instruction on how to stop CC App from loading each time you sign into your computer. WIndows 7, 8 and 10 all three has video instructions.

    I was able to get the popup to stop by letting node.exe run as an admin file:

    1. Open Task Manager

    2. Click the Processes tab

    3. Right click on the "node.exe" process

    4. Click Properties

    5. Click the Compatibility tab

    6. Click in the "Run as administrator" check box

    7. Click Apply

    8. Click Ok

    I have the same problem still getting the v8 error but do not have node.exe... what is the real solution? why in the world should I have to download the product AGAIN when I am paying a monthly service and it's supposed to be updated by adobe... can't they just put the fix on their panel for next update?

    As I wrote you should update the Creative Cloud Desktop to the latest version  x.4.1.181.

          The solution DLinder provided worked for the machines in our office. I do have to note that the node.exe files that we replaced were al located in Adobe installation folders and thus provided by Adobe. Blaming Microsoft (as was mentioned in another comment in this thread) by Adobe is therefore wrong and just a way of finding an easy scapegoat for their own failing. Adobe provided the files, therefore Adobe should fix this (and do better testing!).

          Since we started using the Creative Cloud solution (you have no other choice by the way), we have seen more issues that Adobe blames on someone else his product, although the problem is in their own software (such as being unable to update the Creative Cloud desktop app, because it gets stuck after two percent and you need to download a full new version from the site).

          Adobe fix this and please update your product testing before releasing software to the world!

          I also encountered this problem today for the first time. Seeing the timestamp of the TS, wich leads me to the question why Adobe let's this situation continue, I doubt Adobe will take action soon.

          @Adobe, please fix this issue. It seems to look like the data that is being send by Node.exe is that much value it overrules the user experience. Too bad

          Also nog have seen any comment on this from Adobe itself, on the forums of ADOBE itself!

          Hi!

          @ Adobe, can you please answer this thread with your expected solution for this? Or are we left alone with own "hacks" to solve this? Its fantastic to se all the contribution by all kind people in this thread but this should come from Adobe, and not in the far future. Now! Its impossible to work under this since the popup blocks all other programs and its always on top.

          Adobe?

            Today I had the same problem, so i searched for a solution and after this, it worked:

            1. Open the "Task Manager" while the process of this problem report is running (otherwise you won't see it)

            2. Click on "node.exe", open the file path (mine was C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Creative Cloud\CCLibrary\libs).

            3. Delete the programm while it does not appear on the screen.

            And the problem is solved!

            Tried that too, but afterwards the CC libraries don't work anymore. We merely work in Indesign and need the libs to work fluently. Replacing the node.exe with a newer version, doesn't do the trick neither, error is gone and CC libs do not work anymore.
