Ever sense my adobe animate said there was an update I started trying to update it. It was not working so I decided to delete adobe all together, restart my pc and then redownload it. Sense then I have been having trouble downloading adobe animate and updating cloud. I keep getting the 183 error and 183c error. I am on windows 10 and I am not sure what to do and restarting the computer and trying to update it again and again is not working. If anyone could help me, I would be very grateful, thanks!

first try, resetting the cc app: To reset the Creative Cloud desktop app, make sure it's in the foreground, then press:
Win: Ctrl + Alt + R
Mac: Cmd + Opt + R
if that fails, do a clean cc install:
uninstall every cc app 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 as administrator, 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

I did all of that and it is still having the 183c error. Is it possible i have something wrong with my computer? And how do I fix it?

did you really reinstall "as administrator"?
if so, using a browser that allows popups and cookies, contact adobe support during pst business hours by clicking here and, when available, click 'chat', http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/service-ccm.html

Here's what Adobe's help pages say about the C183 error: "Error code C183: Unable to install the product – indicates an installation failure. Solution: Click Retry to download and install the app again."
Probably not too terribly helpful, and what you've already done.
Another option would be to request/use the 2020 direct download links instead, which don't use the Creative Cloud Desktop app.
You could try the standalone installer for the CC Desktop app itself and see if that helps:
Hope that works for you.
