I've only tested this on 2020 versions of Adobe apps so it may or may not be useful for older Creative Cloud apps. I've also included additional code to specifically uninstall Acrobat and the Creative Cloud Desktop app.

It then passes sapCode and current product version to the Setup executable. Instead of specifying a baseVersion, my script looks at '/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Uninstall' to find a list of Adobe apps currently available for uninstall. I decided to see if that method could be automated to uninstall all currently installed Adobe apps.

I recently came across this post by Anthony Reimer which details how to uninstall an Adobe app by it's sapCode and base install version number. How to cleanly and properly uninstall Adobe Creative Cloud apps has been an ongoing Mac admin challenge for years.
