If you’ve used WinRAR to create archives on your computer before, you probably know it allows you to delete your files after an archive is made. You can use the same option to delete the file that keeps throwing the “could not find this item” error.

The idea here is to make a new archive using your problematic file and let WinRAR delete your file after the archive has been made.

  1. Download and install the WinRAR

Hi,

Thanks for reporting the issue.

Would you be able to collect and upload log files from your system?

Here is a link to an article about the tool with a link to download it.

Log Collector Tool

The tool will create a zip file on the desktop of all the log files. Please could you send us your logs (punaggar@adobe.com) using the tool.

Also, can you please share folder name due to which you are facing the issue ?

Engineering may have some additional questions but this will help us get started.

Thanks,

Puneet Aggarwal

I struggled with this for two hours. Then I tried to delete inner folders inside "Creative cloud libraries". Only 1 folder "Libs" left. then I went inside that folder and deleted everything there. Then the system allowed me to delete the "Libs" folder and then I finally deleted the "Creative cloud libraries" folder. It fixed the problem.

  3. The following screen lets you configure how your archive is to be created. You’ll find an option there that says Delete files after archiving. Tick-mark the box, customize other options as you like, and click on OK at the bottom.
 
  1. It’ll create a new archive containing your file and your actual problematic file will be deleted. You can now delete the archive as well by right-clicking on it and selecting the Delete option.
