Auto-activation in InDesign almost never works for Adobe fonts

Hi!
System configuration: Running most recent version of InDesign (currently 19.5 x64, I have it set to auto-update), on Dell PC running Windows 11 Pro.

I am having consistent trouble activing Adobe Fonts. They are almost never activated when I start the program and open a file. In order to get Adobe Fonts to work I have to go into Creative Cloud User/Preferences/Services/Disable Adobe Fonts almost EVERY TIME and renable them in order to get fonts to load.

To be super-clear, I have Preferences/File Handling/Auto-activate Adobe Fonts set to "on" in my InDesign. What is the point of having this setting if the fonts almost never auto-activate?  Is there another setting somewhere?

This is pretty annoying. How do I get the Adobe fonts to be stable and available without tons of hassle? I really miss just having normally installed fonts.

Thanks for any help.
