information about CC Cleaner Tool & minor update to information on CCP
You need to grab a copy of the Adobe Creative Cloud Packager. It's currently available here: [http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/packager.html].
Install the CCP application, launch it and feed it the info it requires. This will include your serial number, installation media location, output folder and options on which 'features' you wish to suppress including auto-updates etc. Note that CCP will stay logged in to your Adobe account until you explicitly log out.
The application will create a folder in your specified location containing an MSI file and a couple of subfolders. You must copy all of these into your software deployment location.

= Special provisions required for silent removal =
 
Some Adobe products do not leave an easy-to-find package code or otherwise are difficult or problematic to silently remove. According to Adobe support, you'll need to use the [https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/cs5-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html#enterprise Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool] to perform a silent uninstall.
 
These package definitions assume that the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool has been unzipped into <code>%SOFTWARE%\AdobeCC\cleaner</code>. For packages where CC Cleaner Tool is known to be needed, cleanup XML files are provided.
= Individual packages =
== Lightroom ==
Lightroom 6 is 64-bit only and probably works with <code>RemoteUpdateManager.exe</code>, but can't deploy Lightroom 5updates, the last 32-bit release, uses exceptions and updates so they must be deployed manually. The only option Adobe support gave me to silently remove Lightroom 6 requires the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. It requires <code>%SOFTWARE%\AdobeCC\lightroom6-cleanup.xml</code>, provided below. Check Adobe's [http://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/ Lightroom Journal blog] for news of new releases.
