Adobe Animate CC 2018 Crashing on startup, Windows 10

Hi. I can't get Adobe Animate CC 2018 to run recently.

It starts up with the splash screen, shows the interface once the Splash screen is done, then immediately exits to desktop.

I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling multiple times, I've tried the solutions listed here:

Troubleshooting tips to fix Animate CC crash on launch or startup

I've tried using the CC Cleaner tool:

Use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems

No dice. I'm running Windows 10, updated to the latest patch as of May 2018.

This is really frustrating as I need to use it right now.

Hi,

Just want to let you all know that Animate CC July 2018 update is now Live. This update is primarily a hot fix to address the launch app crash issue that many of you were facing after updating the Windows 10 to update 1803 if you have more than 1677 fonts installed on your system.

Please update your copy of Animate CC to the latest using Creative Cloud desktop application Update apps to the latest release of Adobe Creative Cloud to avail the hot fix.

You can refer to Hot Fix to address Animate CC crash on launch or startup KB article for more details on this update.

Thanks!

Mohan

BUMP..

Disappointed that this issue is still floating around after a week. I've spent few hours with live remote support only to be shot down by agent saying that this is Windows problem.

Rolling back to an earlier version of Windows is not an acceptable solution. It's a lazy way of saying I don't want to deal with this and throwing issue to third party. Rubbish.

FFS. I expect something better for the cost that Adobe is charging us. That's a good week of not being able to use something that I've paid for.

BUMP.

Still not resolved, and Support Chat has been closed the entire week.

This is unforgivable, Adobe.

Hi everyone,

The team is unable to reproduce this issue. We have shared the crash dump files with them. Unless the team can reproduce and understand what's going on, this is going to take time. We are doing our best to assist them.

Meanwhile, if you are OK with being contacted for your crash dump files, please send me your Adobe ID, location, and phone number along with the URL of this post over a private message. To send a private message, click my picture and use the Message button.

Thanks,

Preran

did you reset preferences by deleting the preference files?

if so:

uninstall everything cc including preferences, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html

then uninstall the cc desktop app, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html

clean your computer of cc files per http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

restart your computer (don't skip this)

reinstall the cc desktop app, https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud.

if you're unable to install the cc desktop app at this stage, use an administrator account (solution 4 here, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-missing-damaged.html)

use the desktop app to install your cc programs/trials

Are there any problems with other software?

This error is probably the same as anyone else's 1803 problem.

Update patch Incomplete or error

causing system corruption.

Error display, memory problem.

The software cannot read memory,

Thus automatically shut down, or some software cannot fill in the password, and the Chat tool shuts down automatically etc.

We recommend that you reinstall or reset.

Time has passed so long.and rarely solved.

is also in the Windows update.

Click OS Generation Information

What is the operating system version?

Not version, but OS version

If it's 1803,

Should show 17134.81

I read your message.

Your problem is version 17134.1.

This is the issue version.

In May,

1803 there's a new patch.

After the update, 17134.81 doesn't have these problems.
