Cannot run Animate Setup

[callenj6437620]

I try to open Animate Setup, but whenever i click (or right click and click "open") nothing happens. i am on Windows 10 and use a Surface Pro.

install the cc desktop app from here https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud and use it to install your adobe subscription and trial programs.

I install it, it tells me to wait for the app to open. my PC sleeps before it can open.

also, i already had it downloaded it but it never opens either.

Maybe try uninstalling animate cc and reinstall it. Then restart your computer.

assuming nothing cc is currently installed you can skip the first two steps:

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
