Jollander and Tippers1 are you both using computers managed by your work or another organization or do you personally manage these computers and the network they are connected too?

If you personally manage the computer and network then please complete the steps listed in "Failed to install" error received when installing Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app to reinstall the Creative Cloud desktop app.

Restricted in what way?  It's no different to an individual who has full administrative rights to their computer.  I have run a packet capture while trying the installer and there are no packets dropped to/from the desktop PC.  We don't do any SSL scanning so any encrypted packets are not inspected when they pass through the firewall which makes whitelisting unnecessary.

Jollander was able to obtain a custom installer from Adobe support which whilst not idea is at least a workaround.  Can you provide the same?

Tippers1, you can download the installation files for the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop application from Download Creative Cloud desktop app .  It is likely though you will encounter additional errors when you begin the download and install process listed in Learn how to download your Adobe Creative Cloud apps .

I would recommend you bookmark Error downloading or updating Adobe Creative Cloud apps for any future errors you may encounter.  You can use the details in post #3 of this public discussion to configure your network if you encounter additional errors.

I am the IT manager and one of the users wants to trial the InDesign software.  I manage his desktop so have administrator credentials/rights to the desktop and domain it is connected to.  I am trying to install it using an administrator account.  I also manage the network and firewall that the desktop is connected to when trying the install.

I don't have a paid Adobe license so don't seem to have the option for contacting support by web chat.

Tippers1 if you are installing Creative Cloud applications in a restricted environment, then please make sure that the network has full access to the servers listed in Adobe Creative Cloud Network Endpoints to access Creative Cloud applications, updates, and services.

You may also want to look into evaluating a Creative Cloud for Team or Enterprise membership which provide additional local deployment options depending upon the security your organization requires.

Creative Cloud individual memberships are designed to be utilized in non-restricted environments by individuals who have full administrative access to their computer.

Thanks for replying.

I got my issue resolved through the Adobe chat support. They had to make a custom installer file since they couldnt get the regular installers working on my work computer.
