- elliekelly 6y agoHas anyone had success using this with Adobe? I once had to install some Creative Cloud apps for a short-term project so I ran tree on the root directory as superuser before and immediately after installing and then used a diff checker so I’d know exactly what they put on my machine. It took forever. When I was done with the project I “uninstalled” everything and then deleted every single file and folder from the list and manually poked around to see if there was anything lurking that I might have missed. I thought for sure I’d won. About a week later I got a notification that Adobe Creative Cloud was requesting keychain access. I’m convinced it’s un-uninstallable.

- saagarjha 6y agoThe fact that Adobe needs to distribute this tool is very, very sad.
