I am getting an application error 0xc000007b when trying to launch any Adobe app, starting with Creative Cloud and also Lightroom and Photoshop. I have tried re-installing all Microsoft Visual C++ Redistibutables numerous times as recommended here. Re-installing Adobe CC and its programs also doesn't help.
I am using:
Surface Pro X (ARM processor)
Windows 11 64bit ARM with latest updates
Any help would be much appreciated! Thank you!

I might also add that all Adobe CC apps have worked before just fine. Maybe a Windows update has broken something?
