Learn how to schedule Creative Cloud app updates, so that your apps can update automatically later.
If you receive an update notification for your Creative Cloud apps, you can schedule the update for a later time when you aren’t using your apps.
Note
You can schedule an app update for later only if the Auto-update option is turned off.
On the Home tab in the left sidebar, select Manage updates, then hover over Update next to the app.
In the expanded menu, select Later to schedule your app updates.
Your app moves to the Scheduled updates section in the Updates window. You get a confirmation message that your app will be updated when it's no longer in use.
