Creative cloud files not syncing to 2nd computer

I run my Adobe CC account on two computers - mine and my wife's computer.  A few months ago, her computer stopped recognizing our shared Adobe drive, so now she is unable to access our shared files on that device.  We've tried a whole mess of things to resolve it (pausing/unpausing sync, restarting computer/app, reinstallation of individual apps, then the entire CC suite, "upgraded" from Windows 10 to Windows 11), but it simply will not pull up any of our shared files, showing instead only files on the device's local Adobe folder.

 

How in the world can I reinstate that access to our shared files that her computer used to have?

Hi,

In addition to the details requested by Neelam already in her response, I would like to request you to try to Sign in to a 3rd device (just for isolating the issue) & check if you can access the shared files on the new (3rd) device.

>>Creative Cloud Version on both PCs

where do I find this?  I've gone through all menus, options and commands on the CC desktop app and I can't find this.

>>OS versions of both PCs, also when did you upgrade from Win 10 to Win 11.

windows 10 on my machine and windows 11 on second machine.  We updated that OS as an attempt to solve this syncing issue about four months ago.

>>Please verify once if you signed in with the correct Adobe ID on both PCs

>>Do you see any sync error in any of your systems?

no.  The second machine will simply pull up an unrelated synced drive with none of our shared files on my synced drive.

>>How did you share your filesa] and what type of files are shared and to whom.

we had my creative cloud files shared folder that we could both pull up in windows explorer via the CC app.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the suggestion of using a third device.  I can access the shared drive on it.
