Question

Impossible to install apps on macOS Monterey

I've been trying to install application updates for two days now, and they always end up with the same error code 146.
It shows me a /tmp/ folder that I can't access in any way, because the path doesn't appear complete. So all the solutions that appear on the help website have not helped me. In less than 24 hours I have to continue with my work and I see that I start Monday with a very big problem, for something as simple as installing an application. Is there a real solution to this problem?

 

Exit Code: 146

Also make sure that you have no software running like Antivirus that might be prevent writing at these locations.

contact adobe support. there are 2 ways to contact adobe; chat and twitter:

chat:
use a browser that allows popups and cookies
and click here, https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?rghtup=autoOpen
in the chat field (lower right), type AGENT
be patient, it can take quite a while to reach a human.

twitter:
tweet @AdobeCare

p.s. if you're contacted by anyone (via email or private message), it's much more likely to be a scammer than an adobe representative. ie, double check for an employee badge if contacted in the forums and look for an adobe.com domain in the email address if you click reply to an email. then check again and be very suspicious. any other method of contacting (or offering to contact you) is almost certainly a scam, https://community.adobe.com/t5/using-the-community-discussions/staying-safe-in-the-adobe-support-community/td-p/12919684/redirect_from_archived_page/true
