There are many possible solutions online for error 16 for photoshop CC, I have tried them all, I have had error 16 come up a few times before, tried different solutions and then it works. This time iv had no luck, I have uninstalled  reinstalled. Removed all preferences. Followed the adobe solution for this problem.

I am wondering if anyone has found any proper solutions.

Hi Thanks to everyone who replied. I have fixed the issue and now feel like an idiot. I tried every solution on the internet but forgot one key thing. I simply opened it with administrator privilege and that solved it. Thank you to every.

Hi Ryanknightart,

As you have mentioned that you are struggling with error 16 and you have already tried some basic steps like reinstalling and checking out the preference. I would like to know the OS version that you are using right now. Apart from that could you please confirm if you have tried the solutions mentioned in this link steps by step: - Configuration error in Adobe Creative Cloud?

Awaiting your response.

thanks,
