Animate CC 2017.5 crashes on launch page

I'm attempting to run a trial of Adobe Animate CC, but the program always attempts to start by asking me to sync my settings. Of course, whether or not I do so, if I close that box and reach the launch page, the program immediately hangs and crashes. I've tried every suggested fix I can find with no results.

Help would be greatly appreciated.

    i don't mean to be rude, see, but the issue here is that i don't have a phone number.


    The reason I ask for your phone number is because I need that to fill up the case form. If you contact Adobe using the chat option on this page Contact Customer Care you do not need a telephone number.

    I too have been having similar problems recently which started months ago. Were you able to find a solution to it??

    yes. I can't exactly fix it. Is that possibly a reason why it's crashing?

    reset your preferences -

    Thank you for the suggestion, but unfortunately I've already tried this. The problem persists regardless.

    did you delete your preference files or otherwise confirm you successfully reset them?
