Attempting to update Photoshop Beta via Creative Cloud Desktop on Windows 11 consistently fails early in the download process. The update never progresses beyond ~1% before aborting with Error 113. Affected package: AdobePhotoshop27‑Core_x64 (version 27.3.0.3332).

Steps to reproduce:

  1. Install Creative Cloud Desktop (latest release).
  2. Install Photoshop Beta
  3. Initiate update from Creative Cloud (Beta channel).
  4. Observe download progress stall and abort at ~1%.

Expected result:
Update should complete successfully and the latest Beta build should install.

Actual result:
Download aborts immediately with exit code 113 and manifest/validator errors.


Relevant log excerpts:

FATAL: Fatal Error '113' occurred while download  
FATAL: Error occurred in download of package (Name: AdobePhotoshop27-Core_x64 Version: 27.3.0.3332). Error code: '113'  
ERROR: Path:C:\adobeTemp already exists

WARN: GetIEProxyInfo - Failed to get proxy for the url, error:12180  
 

Environment:

  • Windows 11 (latest updates)

  • Creative Cloud Desktop latest stable installer

  • Photoshop Beta (last installed version before update attempt)

  • No unusual firewall/proxy/VPN configuration

Attempts to resolve:

  • Deleted C:\adobeTemp and cleared user temp directories

  • Verified Windows environment variables do not point to adobeTemp

  • Disabled firewall/antivirus during update attempt

  • Uninstalled and reinstalled CC Desktop app

Impact:
Beta updates remain impossible; blocks usage of latest features.

This was caused by instable Wi-Fi. This was difficult to track down because the machine was online and I saw no issues elsewhere. Adobe does not seem to tolerate short outages – updates then inevitably fail. Of course, there's no telling error message. So if you run into similar problem and maybe have a new Wi-Fi set up… look here first (tweak Wifi, plug in cable).
