Question

"Unable to install at this location"

Hello, I was previously successfully able to install some of the Creative Cloud apps at an external SS (Samsung T7, formatted to APFS).

I temporarily uninstalled Creative Cloud desktop app, reinstalled, and now I am getting an error when trying to install apps on the SSD.

 

Is this a temporary issue in between updates?

 

The SSD Drive has plenty of space. I am on a 2019 Intel Macbook Pro Sonoma (latest OS).

 

Thank you!

What error are you getting when you re-install the apps?

Hi there, 

It is advisable to install Creative Cloud desktop app on the C: drive, as it by default selects the install location of the operating system. 

 

You can the change the install language of the Apps within the desktop app.

 

Hope this answers your query.

You may not install to the 'root' of the drive, you must first create a folder and install to that folder

 

Also remember that the cloud manager must be installed to the system drive
