Reference code Error 205 on almost all Creative Cloud Apps
Hello,
I've been experiencing an issue with all my Adobe apps (except the main CC app itself & Acrobat). It's not very consistent, but I've been getting an Error 205 whenever I start an Adobe application. Here are my notes and observations about the whole problem:
- I use Windows 10 x64. Latest version in all the apps.
- It's really incosistent but most of the time, when I launch an Adobe app, I will get the 205 error. And once it happens, it starts happening every time.
- Tried out everything the official help post (https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/fix-licensing-error-205.html) said (cleared out my Credential Store, restarted Windows, logged out and logged back in etc.) the problem does go away for a bit but eventually comes back.
- I've also tried out a lot of the things that were said in similar forum posts (restarting Windows, logging out and logging back in etc., restarting the Credential Manager service, removing the Adobe credentials both through the Control Panel for Credential Manager and the command line) but to no avail.
- If I use the Creative Cloud cleaner tool, (option 11: Clear adobe ID credentials, which is the same as signing out) then launch an Adobe app, it will prompt for me to sign in.
- When I sign in *through the app* (not from Creative Cloud), the app works fine. But ONLY that specific app. (i.e. if i sign out and log in from Photoshop, only Photoshop will work and if I want the Error 205 message to go away in, say, Premiere Pro, I have to use the Cleaner Tool and sign in through Premiere Pro)
- For some reason, never had the error in the CC Desktop app, nor Acrobat Pro.
- Checked out my NGL logs (in %temp%), these are some of the lines that caught my interest:

I hope someone can be of assistance!
