Here’s a guide I rewrote so it would be more understandable and up-to-date:
Step 1: Download & install Creative Cloud (must have Adobe Account) (MAKE SURE YOU OPT NOT TO INSTALL AGS and TURN OFF AUTO UPDATES)
Step 2: Download your choice of GenP (this guide is using a modded verson of GenP 3.0) and CCStopper
Step 3: Go to Settings > Network & Internet > Windows Firewall, find the path of Adobe Desktop Services (Usually - C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Desktop Common\ADS\Adobe Desktop Service.exe) and create both inbound and outbound programs rules to block the connection, name this something memorable.
Step 4: Open Creative Cloud and download (Try, Start Trial, Install) your desired programs.
Step 5: Repeat step 3, but this time block Adobe Genuine Services instead (Usually - C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\Adobe Desktop Common\AdobeGenuineClient\AGSService.exe)
Step 6: Extract & open GenP, click “Search Files”, and click the pill icon, wait until this is done to close GenP)
Step 7: Extract & open CCStopper, once opened type in the corresponding number for “Stop Processes”, once that is complete type in the corresponding number for “Internet Patches”, then finally run the “Credit Card Patch”.
Once this is complete you now have access to any Adobe program for free!
Nah, doesn’t work for me. Apps still ask you to sign in. And after signing in, if you select free trial, you get the payment screen. If you don’t select free trial, the app will quit.
Hi @EWrighter
First, thank you very much for you answer and tip.
You said in your first comment that this method doesn’t work and than you wrote that (it seams to me) with Genp 3.1.9 will work.
Please could you explain to us? It will work with this version of GENP? Did you test it? Worked for you?
Thank you very much for you attention and help in advance.
My case is simple: I would like to use the new Photoshop that has AI function in it, and as I’m in a learning process the 7 days trial it doesn’t works for me since is too short time.
Yeah, after following all of the other steps in this guide, instead of using GenP 3.0, use the one I linked to you. It patches the Adobe Apps so you won’t need to renew or get locked out.
They are False-positive alerts, exclude them via your AV if that’s disturbing, and better to get knowledge on False-positive and negative alerts for a better experience, because not every red alert is a virus, and lastly, many AV programs are made to disturb such things without any sense, avoid using trusting them unless you learn such things on the subject!
