I previously had Adobe Animate installed on my external hard drive and it worked fine but it was too hard to keep plugging in as it requires it to be plugged into a power supply. So, i uninstalled all the adobe things on my creative cloud (Including Animate). Now im trying to reinstall it to my new external hard drive but it keeps saying "Unable to install on a network drive" so i tried to install it on my desktop and it says the same thing... How do i stop this from happening???

    cc programs won't install on external drives, network drives or the root folder of drives.

     

    i don't know how you got animate to install on an external drive previously.

      did you change the install location by using the cc desktop app file>preferences>apps>install location?
