Error 16

Hello,

Today I heard about "Adobe Animate CC" and I wanted to give it a try, when I installed "Creative Cloud" and started to install "Animate CC" I just needed to open it to start a new trial.

So I got this message:

So I did as it said, I reinstalled "Animate CC" and then... The same message appeared with this hint coming with it:

I never even was able to open it, and when I came to "Home" Tab it told me it started the Trial, but... I don't understand why this happened...

So I'm still confused about Error 16 and about the "Trial Expired" message.

The first one (5hrs ago) was the first try, as it downloaded "Media Encoder CC" with it, even though I don't know why, probably just an add-on.

It took about an hour to install, and I opened the app and it said I started me 7 day trial.

Until I had to reinstall, which comes the last try.

Any help, please?

I really want to try this, and see if I should purchase it (Because trying on your own is the best instead of watching a video)

As of said again, I have no idea how a trial got expired if I just started it...?

I thought maybe I could chat to the customer service... :/

I also tried the Configuration error in Adobe Creative Cloud and it did not work, atleast I had one step not working, I don't have the "Owner" Tab at the Advanced Security Settings Window.

Could that be the problem?

Arthurv68896315 from your description it sounds like the current User account does not have sufficient access to the SLStore and Adobe PCD folders.  If you are unable to correct this in the current User account then please create a new local administrator account on the computer and open Animate CC 2017 in the new account.

Complete information on how to set up a new local administrator account can be found at https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/create-local-administrator-account-windows.html.

Hello,

I created a local account according to the link, signed into it and signed into Adobe Cloud.

The Problem still occurs, as it is the same exact problem.
