Since the updqte to &é.(, Adobe Center has removed the link to the app and I see it as "Try" as if it was not in my plan. I have the Photography plan, Im supposed to have access to Photoshop and Lightroom.

I donùt care about Photoshop, but I can still use it... What happened here???

Check your Version of the CC Desktop App. You may need to upgrade it if not at Version 5.11.0.522

Thx. Couldn't find the optiosn to repqir de Qdibe Creqting Cloud Desktop App, but oddly, today, the "Try" changed to an "Open", so it works again, but no clue why... Very strange!

Thanks for the pointer to get in touch with Adobe, I'll try that next time an app fails!

Apparently the current update for LrC fails to create a shortcut on the desktop and the previous shortcut gets deleted. Is this your issue? Simply create a new shortcut.

No, the shortbuts get deleted and in my account, the app is shown as "Try",
not open, and I can't do anything else. If I try to try it, it says I
already have it.
Don't they try their stuff before deploying things? That's why these ways
of handling software are crap.

If the problem had happened to everyone, you might have a point: but most of us are just fine - which kinda suggests that Adobe did test the release before go-live, and you're just part of a tiny subset of unlucky users.
