Can't install Lightroom on my new Windows 10 laptop
I get as far as completing the "Initializing Installer" progress bar but the window disappears and nothing more happens. I've tried compatibility mode for Windows 8 and 7 with no luck

tep 1)
Launch Task Manager, click on More Details option and end all Adobe related tasks.
Step 2)
Navigate to C: > Program Files(x86) > " Common Files" > Adobe .
Open Adobe folder and delete folders named Adobe Application Manager and OOBE.
Unable to delete ?? try to rename . like OOBE-old.
Step 3)
Click on the below link and download Adobe Application manager and install the same :
http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/creativesuite/cc/win/ApplicationManager9.0_all.exe
Once the installation process is completed, locate Adobe Application Manager launch icon on Desktop and double click on it .
It will start update process. once it is completed, It will launch Adobe Creative Cloud app , which is nothing but Updated version of Adobe Application Manager. Quit it.
Then try to install the Lightroom 6 again .
Progress! This worked to get me past the original hang up at the installer. Now something weird is happening. When I try entering my code to activate the program, I can only enter number! When I press the letter keys nothing happens! lol. Anyways, I've started the 30 day free trial and have a bit of time to figure out how to activate it. Maybe an Adobe rep can help with that if I provide the code? Anyways, thank you very much Brucgovn for getting me installed!
