Version-specific release notes
Version 3.5.1.209 released on 2/14/2016

Fixed an issue in the Creative Cloud for desktop app for Mac where in some scenarios the application may incorrectly remove files with user writeable permissions from the system root directory.

I deleted CC update when I first installed PS from the cloud. I use a different adobe updater. The CC one was utter rubbish.

Oh for goodness sake, every time they fix one thing they break something else... I don't remember all these problems with the earlier older versions, since they've gone cloud they seem to be having more bugs. Have they got around to fixing the "issues" with photomerge yet?

Bit of a mess up on Adobes part. I have the version that deletes files. Not noticed an issue but I still wonder what's gone. Glad they have fixed it though.

I suspect part of the problem comes from changing things that didn't need to be changed, it seems to be change for change sake rather than from any need a lot of the time.

Unfortunately seems to have slowed things down for me too

Yeah. Another day when I'm glad I stuck with the standalone version. I may not get DeHaze but I also seem to get less grief
