Hello,Long time users of Photoshop desktop, and new users testing this 'Creative Cloud' version. Sure.In Photoshop, go to PreferencesGeneral. And disable the welcome screen with 'Do not show Welcome Screen on launch'Go to PreferencesPlug-ins and uncheck 'Enable Generator,' 'Allow Extensions to connect to the internet' & 'Load Extension Panels'Next, click the Gear in the upper left of the Creative Cloud desktop app and select Preferences and go to the File tab to turn Sync off, got to the Fonts tab to turn Typekit off. You can also prevent the CC app from launching at log-in in the general tab.Enterprises have a little easier time using a dashboard for maintaining connected services for thousands of seats.
Jeffrey,In the interest of having a complete list of processes associated with Photoshop CC that want to use the internet, I found a couple more services that have popped up:- Adobe Update Service ( adobeupdaterservice.exe )- AAM Updates Notifier Application ( aam updates notifier.exe )As far as I know I have update checking disabled per your suggestion above.I'm only about 24 hours into use like this (blocking outbound access to these 11 services)I've had it hard crash on me once more while working, but not sure why. If it happens more I'll probably try to find some logs or log a session with process explorer to see what it's trying to do before the crash.Thanks.
