Watch out for updates of creative cloud; delete data without authorization

A serious bug in a recent update to the creative Office Cloud app deletes a folder at the root of Mac by removing the first of what it finds, in alphabetical order. This could be some data not Adobe important, as your record of revisions, following editions of all published documents (not only in Adobe applications). There are workarounds and Adobe has released the update, but he was present on my Mac, but I think that my permissions prevents damage. Backblaze users have been affected.

Here's some info and a workaround:

Adobe rather vague mea culpa of sorts:

A new cloud creative desktop downloaded this morning which has corrected this problem.  Quick Fix
