Hi csteelatgburg,
Adobe Update Manager Behavior:
In an individual product installation, the Adobe Application Manager launches automatically every day at 2:00 am to check for updates to Adobe products. The user is not aware of this check unless a product update is found, at which time the application displays a dialog on the end-user machine to inform the user that an update is available. This is not typically the behavior you want in an enterprise deployment.
Adobe Creative Cloud Packager offers you three choices for update behavior:
- To prevent the user’s Application Manager from doing automatic update checking for the deployed products, choose the default option, "Adobe Update Manager is disabled (IT manages update distribution)”. In addition to suppressing the automatic update behavior, this disables the Update option from the Help menu in the applications; users will no longer be able to actively look for updates on their own. If you choose this option, the IT admin must download and deploy updates for their users.
- The option “Admin users update via Adobe Update Manager” enables automatic update checking through the Adobe Application Manager, which is the default for products installed individually. If the user’s system was previously set to suppress updates, deploying a package with this option set re-enables automatic update checking.
- You can choose to redirect the automatic update process to check for updates with your own update server, rather than the Adobe update server. For this, select the option “Use internal update server”. For this option, you must host updates on an internal server, and redirect the Adobe Application Manager to look there for updates. You do this by providing the path to an XML configuration file that contains information about the hosted server.
