Not enough space on C; Change location CC files

[Noortje5C45]

Hi,

a few days ago CC stopped updating the apps because there is not enough space left on my C-drive. I cleaned the drive, and threw away a lot. But it was not enough. CC still will not update.

So in the CC-preferences I changed the location to my D-drive, which has enough space. 

But that does not help. CC keeps trying to install on C-drive.

What did I do wrong?? Is there a solution? Should I remove CC completely (how do I do that?), and re-install it on D-drive?

What can I do??

The cloud manager and SOME other common parts of the programs must install on the boot drive

you must uninstall the adobe apps you don't want in their current location (https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html)

then with the CC application opened, choose the 3 dots in the upper right corner and then choose Preferences.

in the preferences panel select Creative Cloud and then look for the Install Location drop down https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/manage-cc-individual-membership.html

NOTE: you cannot install in the root of a drive.  so make sure you create a folder (eg, Adobe) on your d-drive and change your install location to the folder.
