On Windows 11, when I

  1. open desktop creative cloud app, and
  2. click 'Files' folder on left sidebar, and
  3. then right-click on my Adobe Illustrator project file (to save a local copy to my desktop)... and
  4. click 'Download'

@kglad I just tried again, this time right-click on file in the desktop app (it is online-always) and selected Open in Web App. It now shows this error on assets.adobe.com.

you found your files online and can't download?  if yes, why can't you download?

use a web browser to navigate to the following locations. at each location there are several folders/link to check.:

 

https://assets.adobe.com

https://lightroom.adobe.com

https://documentcloud.adobe.com

https://spark.adobe.com

 

if you delete anything from any of these locations, check for a deleted folder where your file(s) was (were) moved. if you want to clear space you must delete files in the deleted folder. the used storage shown at each of those four sites (when totaled), should match the space shown used by your cc files.
