Uninstall Adobe Creative Cloud without removing pre-existing app

I had a pre-existing installation of Adobe Photoshop CS6 when I installed a free trial of Premiere Pro, which required me to install Adobe Creative Cloud. This version of Photoshop is standalone and has always worked completely independently of Creative Cloud.

Now, Creative Cloud has somehow associated itself with Photoshop, and I am prevented from uninstalling Creative Cloud because:

You still have Creative Cloud applications installed on your computer that require it.

This error appears when trying to uninstall through "Programs and Features" on Windows 10.

How do I remove Creative Cloud without uninstalling Photoshop?

In the end I solved this by uninstalling Photoshop, uninstalling Creative Cloud, and then reinstalling Photoshop, much to my frustration.
