Problem:
The option to disable automatic updates is no longer a part of the installation options. So if Adobe CC is packaged as a FlexApp, the application will attempt to update itself which can cause a few issues.
Possible Resolution(s):
- From the packaging machine create the FlexApp package. Do not close the capture after the installation has completed. Allow the application to update after the initial install.
- Open Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app and navigate to File > Preferences. Toggle off the option to "Always keep creative cloud up to date" and click on Done.
- Copy %localappdata%\Adobe\OBEE\com.adobe.acc.container.default.prefs to C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Creative Cloud. The pref file will now be updated with the option to "Always keep creative cloud up to date" disabled.
- Close Adobe CC and finish the packaging process.
- Create a bat file with the following, and will be used later in process
mkdir %localappdata%\Adobe\OOBE
copy "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Creative Cloud\com.adobe.acc.container.default.prefs" %localappdata%\Adobe\OOBE\
- From the packaging machine, playback the package and then click on the FlexApp editing icons to add scripts to the package.
- Use the following options Appdir-1, Post Activation and the path to the script. Click on the first OK to add the script you created earlier. Click on bottom OK to close the package.
