    Adding Adobe Creative Cloud to our catalog is challenging for several reasons, including the need for Adobe login credentials to access binaries, managing custom configurations, and the inability to import apps over 2GB due to our current schema limitation in WSUS.

    Similarly, the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App only supports silent installations when using binaries accessed through the Adobe login. The "free" download available here https://creativecloud.adobe.com/apps/download/creative-cloud does not support silent installations.

    On a positive note, Adobe Creative Cloud apps can be managed using Custom Apps within Publisher. I've personally tested the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App & Adobe Photoshop with no issues.

    However, there is currently a bug in PMPC Cloud that causes errors when uploading folders containing multiple versions of the same file (e.g., setup.exe in multiple locations). I am hopeful this bug will be resolved soon.

    TL;DR:

    • We won’t be adding Adobe Creative Cloud products to our existing catalog for the reasons mentioned above. However, Custom Apps can provide a viable workaround for our customers.

    • Adobe Creative Cloud apps work using Custom Apps with Publisher (I've personally tested the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop App & Adobe Photoshop with no issues)

    • Adobe Creative Cloud apps DO NOT work with PMPC Cloud due to a bug when uploading folders containing multiple versions of the same file. I am hopeful this bug will be resolved soon.

    Learning how to make Company Portal Apps an not thrilled that Adobe Creative Cloud isnt available so forcing me to look into making it manually. This should be an easy thing PatchMyPC should add with the number of requests on the site here about it.

    Not sure, but is this request for including the Windows Creative Cloud desktop app in the catalog? If so, I would support that as it doesn't seem to require anything special. I would love to use Patch My PC to deploy the application and allow my users to self-service the products that they are licensed for.

    This would be a very good application to package, the settings could be so that users can install the applications and their updates themselves.
