How do I remove old versions of Adobe apps I no longer use?
Short answer: Use the Creative Cloud app to uninstall apps or older versions, and set it to remove previous versions on update. Avoid dragging Adobe apps to the Trash.
Open the Creative Cloud desktop app, go to your installed apps, and use the menu beside an app to uninstall it or older versions. Creative Cloud can also be set to remove previous versions automatically when it updates (in its app settings).
Adobe apps are best uninstalled through Creative Cloud rather than dragged to the Trash, because they install shared components elsewhere on the Mac.
