After buying a new computer because After Effects suddenly refused to work on the old one, I find I can't install Acrobat Pro on the new machine.
Trying to install from the CC desktop app.
Everything else installed fine.
Acrobat Pro installs to about 20%, gets hung up on 'Extracting' and I get a 'Progress is Slow' message, then installation fails at 43% or 71%.
Error Code: 136
Error log:
Exit Code: 7
Please see specific errors below for troubleshooting. For example, ERROR: DW003, DW071 ...
-------------------------------------- Summary --------------------------------------
- 0 fatal error(s), 2 error(s)
----------- Payload: Adobe Acrobat DC 21.5.20058.0 Adobe Acrobat\Setup.exe_21.005.20058 -----------
ERROR: DW071:
ERROR: DW003: Third party payload installer Adobe Acrobat\Setup.exe failed with exit code: 1602
Have obviously tried to rebot, reinstall CC Desktop etc
I downloaded Creative Cloud Cleaner, but as there isn't anything Acrobat related installed, I can't figure out how to use this to 'clean up' and installations.
Any help would be appreciated.

As I put in my first message, I have the cleaner tool, but I don't know how to use this as Acrobat is not installed. Can you advise on how to use the cleaner in this case?
