"Close all copy's of the Adobe Application Manager to continue."

Question

Currently I'm continually facing the same error when trying to open 'Apps' in the Creative Cloud App.

There error states:

"There's been an error

Close all copy's of the Adobe Application Manager to continue."

The error makes it impossible to open/install/deinstall Adobe Applications through the Creative Cloud App, quite annoying.

I've already closed all Adobe Applications through task manager (as i'm on windows) and i've already tried reainstalling through the Creative Cloud Uninstaller, nothing seems to effect the error.

Anyone with a remedy?

open task manager and start shutting down anything that looks like it might be the culprit.
