iMac (Big Sur): Creative Cloud icon has disappeared from desktop menu bar

I know this issue has occurred in years past, so the solutions from five or six years ago aren't really relevant, I think. The Creative Cloud icon has disappeared from my iMac's desktop menu bar. I upgraded to Big Sur when it first came out, with no issues, and it updated to 11.1 back before the new year. However, it was just this week when the Creative Cloud icon disappeared. All of that functionality is now unavailable to me. Adobe's instructions for restoring it are unintelligible (no, you can't find anything about Creative Cloud in System Preferences in Big Sur).

Any idea how I can get this back? My whole system has recently become very unstable - Finder, in particular - after an install of Epson's drivers for the V600 scanner (supposedly compatible with Big Sur). This might have caused a CC issue? Eitehr way, I'm out of ideas.
