Good day, po! I have already used the cleaner from Adobe. The apps are completely gone in 'Programs and Features,' but the files still remain on my local disc. I can still open the app from there; it's now like a portable app. Do you have any suggestions on how to remove it?
 
Hello! It sounds like you've successfully uninstalled the Adobe applications using the Adobe Cleaner tool, but remnants of the software still exist on your local disk. To completely remove the remaining files and ensure that the applications are fully uninstalled, you can follow these steps:

1. Manual Deletion:
- Navigate to the directory where the Adobe applications are installed on your local disk.
- Manually delete the folders related to the Adobe applications. These are typically located in the "Program Files" or "Program Files (x86)" folder.
- Be cautious when deleting files manually, as removing essential system files could cause issues.

2. Registry Cleanup:
- Press Win + R, type regedit, and hit Enter to open the Registry Editor.
- Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE and HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE.
- Look for Adobe-related entries and delete them. Before making any changes, it's recommended to back up the registry or create a system restore point.

3. Temporary Files:
- Clear temporary files and folders related to Adobe applications. You can use tools like CCleaner or Disk Cleanup to perform this task.

4. Reboot Your Computer:
- After performing the above steps, restart your computer to ensure that all changes take effect.

By following these steps, you should be able to completely remove any remaining traces of the Adobe applications from your system. Remember to exercise caution when making changes to system files and the registry. If you encounter any issues or require further assistance, feel free to ask!
