Unable to Login to Creative Cloud After Downloading

Hi,

 

I'm trying to install Adobe Creative Cloud on a user's workstation. We've logged into the Adobe website, logged in with the user's account, downloaded the Creative Cloud Desktop app, and when running the installer (it is run using different credentials that have elevated Windows permissions), it comes up with the following text:

 

"Check your browser

 

We've opened a new browser tab for you to sign in. (Once you've been authenticated, you will automatically continue here.)"

 

The browser tab it opens says its logged in, but the desktop application will not progress any further. We cannot get any further than this. I've tried the following:

 

1) Deleting the OOBE folder in appdata\roaming\Adobe

2) Granting the domain user account local administrator rights to the computer

3) Restarting between steps

 

Operating system is: Windows 10 Enterprise x64 1809 - computer is joined to a Windows domain.

 

Many thanks

    Hi Axel, I've tried using IE, Edge, FireFox and Chrome, no change. Also, regardless of which default I choose within Windows, the Adobe Creative Cloud Installer will open Chrome regardless.

     

    Also, I did manage to get hold of a support agent and they were unable to resolve the issue, so instead created a package to install Adobe Creative Cloud manually, which then asks you to sign in when launched anyway, so why the installer requires authentication, I literally have no idea and probably Adobe don't really understand either. Lmao.

    Hi,

    I have the same issue & have also tried all the steps you have tried.  Was their any response or fix from Adobe?
