Adobe CC with Deep Freeze

[netadmin]

We are looking at purchasing a "site" license for Adobe Creative Cloud (which really amounts to 100 device licenses). Does anyone currently use Adobe CC device licenses on machines that run Deep Freeze? It sounds like Adobe CC activates the first time it is launched and then again must reactivate every 99 days. I can script launching one of the Adobe apps after machine imaging to force the initial activation while Deep Freeze is in thawed mode but was unsure if issues would occur if the reactivation occurs when the machine is in Frozen mode.

 

For machines that use device licenses, if they get reimaged, will they automatically use the same license or will it consume a second license and require manual action to delete the initial license?

 

Thanks for any input you may have!

It's a similar process for Adobe CS6. We call the serialise exe in our machine start up scripts to the machines always have 100 days grace before a relicense. Works well for us

Issues may occur if you activate in Frozen Mode as the state you're activating it in is not the same state it restores to.

 

I use Drive Vaccine now instead of Deep Freeze which I used for almost a decade and I personally find Drive Vaccine easier to manage updates. That said, Deep Freeze should be fine, just have to keep half an eye on the program as your Adobe CC licenses reactivate.

 

I would think if a machine is re-imaged it would need a license be reset.
