Creative Cloud App (CCE membership)- stuck in endless look trying to uninstall/update/reinstall

I'm using CC on a Macbook Air with MacOS 12.6.2. My CC is stuck at 0% updating. I need to install Adobe Reader but it can't install while the update is being processed.

 

I can't delete the only CC app I still have (Camera Raw) as it needs updating, which I can't do until CC is updated. But CC is stuck on 0% updating... You see my problem!

 

I went the back route and deleted all CC related apps and files and managed to finally reinstall the app, only for it to be stuck at 0% updating again. If I've just newly installed it, why does it need to update? And why won't it? Please help!

@drjanetm72 some minor updates get installed when CCD is up and running.

If you are using the organization's device or network or connected to VPN, kindly try switching the network, disconnect the VPN, and check if the app is updating.
