Hi, 

If the issue is still present, this is how I fixed it for me.

First be sure to close all the Adobe applications;

Open the CMD(command prompt) as an administrator and enter the following command:

netsh winhttp reset proxy

After you inserted it you can press Enter and closed it after you will get the message : 

Current WinHTTP proxy settings:

Direct access (no proxy server).

After that open the application normally and you should get a pop-up to log in.

Hope that helps!

If you are still facing this issue, try enabling Credential Manager on your computer, and let us know if it helped.

Thanks,

Preran

We are using Adobe Acrobat DC on Windows 10 and had the same issue for one user out of a team of 8.

Did anyone have this issue after time-saving (BST to GMT in my case) change? And the PC had this issue despite no apparent issues with the date and time. The clue was in the link provided on the error: https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/licensing-errors.html. Specifically: "If you are in the offline mode, stop your system clock from syncing with the internet time." Ignore this advice and do the following.

On Windows 10:

- Open a command prompt (admin)

- Run: w32tm /tz

- I had 'Unknown' as the time zone

- To find your time zone description, run: tzutil /l

- As I am in UK, to correct run: tzutil /s “GMT Standard Time”

- To check it has changed to correct time zone, run: w32tm /tz 

- It should display the correct time zone information

- I had to uninstall Acrobat and re-install for it to activate successfully

We can’t reach the Adobe servers. This may be because you’re not connected to the internet. Check your connection and try again below. If you’re still having issues, please see our connectivity troubleshooting guide.

But I am connected to the internet, can open all other adobe programs and have reinstalled XD. Still does not work.

Can someone help me please?

It show "We can’t verify your subscription status.

It's OK when I switch other wifi!!

That is Adobe tech's answer:

"It looks like some network cache problem in Wifi

when ever you get time - you can switch of wifi for few minutes & then switch it back on , it should be good then ."

Thank for your help!!

I was trying to open a file which save on Adobe Cloud.
I usually open it from Adobe XD> Your Work. But Today i can't find the file.
(AdobeXD didn't Connect with Adobe CC)

I use Creative Cloud Desktop and try to open the File.
THEN.........

I got this

[WE CAN'T VERIFY YOUR SUBSCRIPTION STATUS.]
["We can’t reach the Adobe servers. This may be because you’re not connected to the internet. Check your connection and try again below. If you’re still having issues, please see our connectivity troubleshooting guide . "]

THEN.....

I follow the stupid way Adobe Post on the community
[CLOSE IT, SIGN OUT, SIGN IN AGAIN, OPEN IT]

BUT still don't WORK!!!!!!!!

{Renamed By MOD}

[LeeMuWei]

I can use Mac and open the file from Adobe CC But My windows CAN'T THAT's WHY IM SOOO ANGRY

Adobe community first of all, I love XD for the things I can do with it but these crashes cost alot. I have a problem with " we can't verify your subscription status". I have been on this platform trying out every possible link but nothing is working. Before it was error "5179" at startup. The solutions here I must say, for Windows, need to be standardised because I don't remember how that one got fixed and if it backtracked, Idk if I can still get around it. 

[J.22056825k3ab]

Good evening,
I had the 'we can't verify your subscription status' pain for several months and spent many hours ploughing through suggested cures: utterly fruitlessly. Then I came across someone on a 'talk- board /message board complaining that this was a tech issue and referring to a list of phone numbers that one can call according to where you are in the world.
I called the relevant number - it took me two goes at the list of options because it wasn't absolutely clear which I needed but it worked. It wasn't a quick fix but a live individual worked through the problem with me - maybe 30-45 minutes - and succeeded.
Couldn't or wouldn't tell me why the problem had suddenly appeared- pity!
Which leaves the question: why in the name of all that's holy doesn't Adobe put those 'regional ' phone numbers where they can be seen, and worse still, why was there all that blether back and forth instead of Adobe saying 'contact your regional help number???

I DIDN'T KNOW THAT WE SHOULD PREPARE TWO COMPUTER FOR Ur PROBLEM

[ThePit!]

Crash! Getting to be a problem with XD. Why is this app so troublesome? It's the simplest app in Adobe's lineup. 

[LeeMuWei]

Only XD Can't Verify the Subscription..............................................................

ANYONE?????

[LeeMuWei]

OKAY..... it fixed by itself....
I didn't do anything and used Figma Yesterday.
AND....
I open XD this morning..... it fixed.......

[Maliabu]

At this point am also now hoping the issue magically fixes itself. It's been weeks without any luck. It's getting really frustrating because time is crucial.
