Hello, I am unable to access my Adobe Cloud files in my Illustrator. This is the system error that showed up when I tried to open my Cloud Files 


I have tried the following methods and this error still pops up:
1. Uninstall and reinstalling the App
2. Log out and log in Creative Cloud

None of these works. Appreciate any help as majority of my files are in Cloud!

    Hello ​@liyanahshm 

     

    Thanks for confirming. Kindly try switching to a different Wi-Fi or network connection, disable any antivirus, firewall, or VPN software, and let us know how it goes.

    Since I updated my illustrator and photoshop, I don’t have access to my files. Does everyone know how to fix it?

    Can you see (and open) them in the Files section of your Creative Cloud app?
