Adobe has provided temporary at-home access for impacted students and faculty, so that they can continue their work remotely. Please follow the instructions below to enable access to Creative Cloud Desktop Apps on your personal device.

TCC's Virtual Desktop

TCC's Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) allows you to log on to a Windows 10 virtual desktop from anywhere you have internet access.

This provides you with virtual access to many campus applications and programs, including:

  • Microsoft Office (such as Word, PowerPoint, Excel and Access)
  • Microsoft OneDrive
  • NetLab

Since VDI has the resources and software you need, you don't need to download anything directly to your device to get your work done.

*NOTE* TCC VDI does not work on Mac computers.
