Adobe Creative Cloud Thinks I'm a Deadbeat

For some reason, Adobe thinks I need to pay for services - but I'm already doing so. I just updated to Catalina 10.15.7 the other day, and this is the first time I've had this issue. Does anybody have any suggestions?

Did you restart your computer after upgrading your OS?

Did you log-out and log-in again with your PAID Creative Cloud ID and password?
