    Solution: Suitcase Fusion needed to be reinstalled after Windows Creator update because Font Activation got broken. All working now.

    Here's what fixed mine (Windows 10):

    • Go to the windows start menu, and search "Show hidden files and folders"
    • Go to "Hidden files and folders" folder > Select the "Show hidden files, folders, and drives" button > OK

           ( This allows you to see the App Data folder. )

    • Navigate to your C Drive > Users > [Username] > App Data > Roaming > Adobe > [ Photoshop version ]
    • Delete the CT Font Cache folder
    • Restart photoshop

    Thank you for your detailed information. I finally found the CT Font Cache because of them. However I had resolved the problem prior to receiving the infno.

    What I did, after uninstalling all my CC programs & rebooting twice without having the problem go away. Since I needed to get a project done I decided to go to Elements that was also on my machine only to find that I couldn't use it either. Not the same problem, it just shut down after I loaded all my photos. So I uninstalled Elements, rebooted & reinstalled it. I was able to finish my project with Elements.

    I had made an appointment with my IT the next morning, but decided to try PS CC once more & found that it must have been something in Elements that was causing the problem because now it worked fine.

    Hope this might help someone else.

    Hi mukeshp,

    Do you get this error message while opening a specific document or all? Which version of Photoshop are you using?
