So after the conversation last night, I tried to check for an update
to Dreamweaver. Selecting the update menu item in Dreamweaver told me
my version of Abode Application Manager was corrupt.  I went to the
website, searched for Adobe Application Manager and was given this
link:
https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud
where I downloaded this file: CreativeCloudSet-Up.exe and attempted to
install it.

The first attempt failed with a message that said Creative Cloud could
not be installed.  No reason or explanation as to why.  I uninstalled
the previous version of the application manager, dated 5/11/2012,
rebooted and ran the install program again.  After about five minutes
of the installer running, I was presented with a login prompt.  I
signed in with my Adobe credentials, selected the  option for
applications and updates and was presented with a list of the various
applications which showed that I need eight updates.  I am sitting
here typing this message while the app updates ponderously download.
Nothing simple or quick about any of this.

As for locations, the previous installer put the files in Program
Files folder for some of the apps, the Program Files (x86) for others
and scattered icons all over the desktop and start menu.

So I am still voting for the anthill.
