On my two PCs, the Creative Cloud update keeps failing. The download starts and after 30 to 40% this message appears. Is this another Adobe bug? It's just annoying...

Make sure your computer meets the minimum CPU & GPU requirements. Most Creative Cloud apps work on:

  • Windows 10 versions 21H2, 21H1, 20H2, 2004, and 1909 (LTSB branches are not supported);
  • macOS 12 (Monterey), macOS 11 (Big Sur), macOS 10.16 or 10.15 (Catalina)

3. Click on your Avatar again.
4. Sign-out of Creative Cloud.
5. Close all apps.

7. Open CC Desktop app.
8. Click your Avatar.
9. Sign-in with your paid ID and password.

Failing that, see this help article about resolving connection errors:
