After Effects won't open and all I'm left is a beach ball rolling

I've tried updating the IOS software, Adobe Creative Cloud cleaning, even tried the whole Shift+Option+Command (Preferences cleaning). I'm still left with a beach ball rolling. I'm totally desparate here!

No system or OS details only leaves me with one suggestion. Roll back to a previous version that worked using the Creative Cloud app/other versions tool, or you can try using the Adobe Cleaner tool and re-install. If neither of those workflows solves the problem then your system does not meet the minimum system requirements or your GPU drivers are probably causing problems.

Thanks Rick! I'll look into all your suggestions. Deeply appreciated!
