    and make sure you're not trying to install on the root of a drive.  ie, create an adober folder on the drive and install into that.

    Error code 176 indicates that you are trying to install the app on a network drive. The solution is to select another install location in your device preferences, and install the app again.

    I've moved your post from Using the Community to the Photoshop forum.
