✦ GenP Guide ​

Easily download and patch the latest version of any Creative Cloud software on Windows using GenP, an unlimited selection of apps, faster updates, and other benefits.

β“˜ Mixing GenP with other methods on your machine is not recommended, as it will inevitably lead to issues. Run Adobe's Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to completely remove previous Adobe apps if this warning applies to you.

  1. Download Adobe Creative Cloud. You must create an account and sign in. Feel free to use a temporary email. Do not install Adobe Genuine Service (AGS) if prompted.
  2. Go to Menu > File > Preferences and in the General tab, disable the following settings:

Launch Creative Cloud at login

Run Creative Cloud in the background after closing

Automatically keep Creative Cloud up to date

  1. Close Creative Cloud once finished. (Menu > File > Quit Creative Cloud)
  2. Download GenP from the official GenP website. The Binary download is recommended for beginners as it’s ready to use, while source is intended for more advanced users. Windows Defender, along with certain third-party programs, are known to wrongfully block GenP. You must whitelist or exclude the file. You may also disable real-time protection completely, but do not forget to turn it back on afterwards.
  3. Right-click the zip > Extract all (GenP.vX.X.X-CGP.zip) and Run GenP (GenP-vX.X.X.exe) as administrator.
  4. In the main tab, click Search. You should be prompted three files underneath Creative Cloud, ensure that all three are selected and click Patch.
  5. Open Creative Cloud and install your desired applications (Premiere, After Effects, and so on) in the Apps menu. Once the applications are installed, close Creative Cloud and all respective Adobe apps.
  6. Run GenP (GenP-vX.X.X.exe) as administrator and click Search. This time, select the files for your program(s) (Premiere, After Effects, etc) and click Patch. The application will now be patched, enjoy.
