    How to uninstall plugins in the Creative Cloud desktop app

If you are trying to install your plugin or extension on a Windows computer with an ARM processor, you won't be able to view the Marketplace tab in the Creative Cloud desktop app.

We are working to ensure plug-in support for Windows computers that use ARM processors. In the meantime, we recommend that you install and run your plug-ins on Windows computers that use Intel processors.

Some plugins or extensions are installed as panels inside the Creative Cloud apps, while some others are installed in the form of zipped files. To know where you can find your installed plugin or extension, go to the Adobe Exchange website and select your plugin or extension. Scroll down to the bottom of the web page and navigate to the section Where to Find it. This section provides the location details of the plugin or extension after it has been installed.
