Error launching apps on AWS Workspaces which is based off Windows Server 2016

Hello everyone,

I have downloaded and installed Adobe Creative Cloud desktop, and then installed Adobe Audition.  All went good.  When I launched Adobe Audition, it gave me a couple of error messages regarding missing DLL files.  I checked the Adobe folder for those 2 missing DLL files and they're actually there.

I have been doing some research about the issues similar to what I have, and one post mentioned that Adobe Apps won't work on Windows Servers?  Is this true?

 

Thank you,

-Firas

When you say Windows Servers, what exactly have you installed it on? As far as I'm aware, Windows Server 2016 looks remarkably like Windows 10 and on the face of it, it should run fine. That said, strictly speaking it isn't Windows 10 so technically it doesn't meet the CC installation requirements that specify this as a minimum. There's a thread here relating to this that says the same thing.

Thank you for your reply Steve! I installed Adobe apps on Windows Server 2016 on one of the Amazon Workspaces. I googled for more information and I agree with you, after reading Adobe Creative Cloud app system requirements, that they require Windows 10 and Mac OS, and no mention of Windows Server. I have thought about (still researching) installing Virtual Box on Windows Server in AWS Workspaces, and in it to install Windows 10.  

Thank you very much for your guidance and for providing link to the thread.  I appreciate it.
