Creative Cloud not opening after installation

I'm trying to install Creative Cloud on my Mac. Installation finishes successfully, but then CC won't open. Not message or anything, just nothing happening when I want to open the programm. Have repeatedly deinstalled and reinstalled, deleted the whole Adobe folder in the library, run the Cleaner Tool. All did not help. If I check Activity Monitor, each time I try to open CC, a new AdobeCRDaemon task will start. Any idea what else I could try?

(Might be related to older Adobe installations I had running on my old machine, based on which I have set up my new machine.)

what's your os version?

did you download and then install the cc desktop app (as opposed using time-machine or some other migration method)?

first, reset the cc app:

to 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/reinstall per the above link

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
then uninstall the cc desktop app, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html
clean your computer of cc files per http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
check for, and if available, update your osrestart your computer (don't skip this)
reinstall the cc desktop app, https://creativecloud.adobe.com/apps/all/desktop?action=install&source=apps&productId=creative-cloud

if you're unable to install the cc desktop app at this stage, use the link 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
