I receive "Error code: 72" when attempting to install ACC on Windows 7; what does the code mean, and what is the solution?


Thanks!

    Correct answer mrwidde

    Running the installer as an Administrator worked for me.

    Rightclick the installer -> "Run as Administrator"

    Same Problem EVERY TIME there is an update...my Creative Cloud Program will not install and I have to wipe my machine to get it to work. For me that is about 4 hours work EVERY time with all the programs and configurations and typing in fricken serial numbers just so Adobe can ignore us instead of fixing the problem from TWO YEARS AGO.

    I love how Adobe just ignores all these problems and does not reply. The original post is from June 9th 2014! and running as an administrator worked for that one guy....it is not working for the rest of us.

          I've tried running in administrator mode a few times and restarting but it keeps giving me the error code 72. Not sure what to do.
