Adobe Photoshop

We are currently deploying Adobe Photoshop 27.10 using the Patch My PC Cloud Custom Apps feature, based on an Adobe Admin Console package.

The package itself works, but we have run into a limitation with larger Adobe deployments. PatchMyPC-ScriptRunner launches setup.exe --silent correctly under SYSTEM, but aborts the EXE after exactly 30 minutes.

We have reproduced this multiple times. For example:

• 11:18:48 – setup.exe --silent started

• 11:48:48 – Aborted due to timeout.

Adobe's own installation log shows that Photoshop was still actively extracting/installing its payload at that point. The Photoshop Core payload alone took approximately 8.5 minutes to extract, and the complete installation requires longer than 30 minutes on our test device.

Our Intune Win32 app is configured with an installation time of 60 minutes, but the Patch My PC ScriptRunner timeout occurs at 30 minutes regardless.

This makes the recommended Custom Apps approach problematic for large Adobe Admin Console packages such as Photoshop, even though the Adobe installer itself is functioning normally.

Native Adobe Creative Cloud application support in the catalog would therefore still be very valuable, or alternatively Custom Apps need to support installer runtimes beyond 30 minutes.

This also appears directly related to PATCHMYPC-I-4218 (Configurable max runtime).

Adding Adobe Creative Cloud products, such as Photoshop, into our catalog presents several challenges. These include requiring Adobe login credentials to access the binaries and handling the variability in options selected, along with managing and detecting custom configurations.

On the bright side, customers can efficiently manage Adobe Creative Cloud apps by using our Custom Apps feature.

When I searched Bard (Google)
I had this but got 403 error when trying. Oviously it's locked down.

But you will need an Active CS to get in and grab the updates

Do you have a link to the vendor's website, download link, documentation, release notes etc?

Is this a single file installer?
