Question

Creative Cloud keeps signing me out - minutes after logging in

Hello everyone,

for a couple of days the apps have kept signing me out, now already after a few minutes at most. Super annoying. None of the suggested solutions worked 

I guess it has to do with the latest Windows 11 update because the problems started the day after. I didn't change anything else.  

 

What can else I do?

Daniel, in addition to Kglad's suggestion, can you let us know if an organization manages any of the software or logins on the computer?  I am showing you are using an individual educational membership.  

 

You did a great job of choosing an e-mail address not managed by the educational organization, but if you have previously logged into a membership provided by them, then it could block you from utilizing an individual membership on the computer.  The steps listed in https://community.adobe.com/t5/download-install-discussions/unexpectedly-signed-out-of-adobe-application-or-membership/td-p/13244882 will fail in these circumstances.

reset the cc desktop app: make sure it's in the foreground, then press:

Win: Ctrl + Alt + R
Mac: Cmd + Opt + R

if that fails, try to repair

if that fails go ahead and uninstall using the correct uninstaller from https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html#sa_src=web-messaging and then reinstall

if that fails, do a clean cc install following each applicable step:

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

if you're unable to download the cc desktop app at this stage, use the "alternative download links" at the bottom of the page at https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-app-download.html

use the desktop app to install your cc programs/trials
