Spurious unable to validate subscription status error

This is a longstanding Creative Cloud issue (happening though many versions over at least the past 2 years).  I am currently running Windows 10 Pro version 21h2 on a Dell 2 processor desktop with 48 Gb of RAM. 

 

After a period of working correctly for a few weeks, I receive an unable to verify subscription status error from one of the apps, usually Acrobat, Bridge or Photoshop and am unable to use any of my Creative Cloud Apps.  This situation is permanent until I log out of Creative Cloud and log back in...a tedious process.  Then everything works again for some time, usually a week or two.  This is a very annoying bug because it usually happens when I am in a hurry.

Hi @Superxveg , can you upload logs from your machine and share the log file name?

next time, ask adobe support if they can determine what's corrupting your credentials.

So frustrating. It happens to me over and over and over again! Then I verify but it still wont work and have to wait hours for someone from adobe to remote desktop to my machine to fix it! Insanely frustrating!

your stored credentials aren't deteriorating on their own.

Only have Microsoft Defender....no 3rd party anti malware.  Pretty vanilla collection of other 3rd party apps like Chrome and Quickbooks.  Situation also occurs on another Windows 10 computer used by my wife under different Adobe account but same Windows version

something on your computer (eg, av, antimalware, cleaner etc) is corrupting your adobe credentials.
