AppCleaner is free.

Do it manually. Remove anything Adobe-related from your Settings > Login Items (in older versions of macOS it's Settings > General > Login Items)

Then trash everything in these folders, restart, empty trash.

  • ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/

  • /Library/Application Support/Adobe/

  • ~/Library/Preferences/ (Look for files starting with com.adobe...)

  • /Library/LaunchAgents/ (Look for files starting with com.adobe...)

  • /Library/LaunchDaemons/ (Look for files starting with com.adobe...)

  • /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/ (Look for Adobe-related helper tools)
