When a Creative Cloud Dektop App opens it has just a white screen, refreshes itself multiple times and then shuts down without any errors. I tried deleting OOBE folder, Adobe has full permissions and I tired reinstalling multiple times (on Windows10), what can be the issue?

I did this too, I deleted every cc, cleaned all files left, then desktop, run a cleaner through the computer to wipe out everything, and after restart tried installing again but it still shows just the white screen and then crashes

I am having a simular problem that when I open creative cloud it is blank. I have a Macbook pro and have deleted the OOBE folder and nothing has changed, what else can I do?

I think you should go to creative cloud uninstaller and click the repair option and you should restart and relaunch it...should work

first, close your cc desktop app.

then, rename the opm.db file by:

    navigate to the OOBE folder.

    Windows: [System drive]:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE

    Mac OS: /User/<username>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE folder

    and rename the opm.db file to opm_old.db, eg

finally, launch your cc desktop app.

uninstall everything cc including preferences, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html

then uninstall the cc desktop app, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html

delete your oobe folder

clean your computer of cc files per http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

restart your computer (don't skip this)

reinstall the cc desktop app, https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud.

if you're unable to install the cc desktop app at this stage, use an administrator account (solution 4 here, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-missing-damaged.html)

use the desktop app to install your cc programs/trials
