Learn what happens to your Adobe Creative Cloud account, apps, storage, and files after you cancel your Adobe subscription.
After you cancel your Adobe Creative Cloud subscription, access to paid apps and services ends when your current billing period finishes. However, your Adobe account remains active, and you retain access to certain free features.
Free subscription benefits
After you cancel your Creative Cloud subscription, your Adobe account remains active, and you continue to have free membership benefits.
Creative Cloud storage
After cancellation, your allowed cloud storage is reduced to 5 GB. If you are over your storage limit, you have 30 days to reduce your online usage. After 30 days, you could lose access to some or all of your files saved on the Creative Cloud servers. Learn how much storage you've used.
If you saved your work on your computer, you can continue to access those files on your device.
Files in free cloud storage may be permanently deleted after a period of inactivity. You’ll receive an email notice prior to deletion.
Lightroom images
Adobe will continue to store your original images for one year after your membership lapses. During that time, you can continue to launch Lightroom to download your original files from our cloud services.
Lightroom Classic images
You can continue to access all your photos on your local hard drive through Lightroom for the desktop. You can continue to import and organize photos and output your edited photos through Export, Publish, Print, Web, or Slideshow. Access to the Develop & Map modules and Lightroom for mobile will be unavailable after your membership ends.
