Unable to launch Adobe Illustrator and unable to install Creative Cloud

So I have no idea how a .dmg file works. I'm running Windows 11 version 23H2, and Adobe Illustrator just tells me I need to update my system, even though there isn't an update available. I tried downloading the installer for Creative Cloud, but it just gives me a .dmg file I can't do anything with. If anyone has had similar issues, I could really use a hand.

Okay so I can't install Creative Cloud, downloading the installer gives me a .dmg file which I cannot use on a Windows PC. .dmg files are for Mac.
