After the latest update to version 6.1.0.587 my copy of Adobe Muse will no longer open.
It partially loads, and then just closes.
In the Windows 10 logs I'm seeing -

Anyone any idea why this is happening?
I have uninstalled and reinstalled Muse and that makes no difference.
This is a big problem as I need to update one of my Muse websites.
And please, DON'T just tell me that Muse is now unsupported and obsolete and I should be using something else, I'm well aware of that!
I have carried on using Muse until I can find something better, which I haven't yet, and it has always worked fine up until now.
I haven't knowingly made any changes which would prevent it from working, so why has it suddenly apparently failed?
Thanks, Dave.
Thanks very much for that!
I actually managed to get Muse to run late last night too, by forcibly closing down all the other Adobe programs running on my machine. You don't have to have the CC Desktop app running to use Muse of course, it runs just fine by itself.
It's not exactly ideal though.
I will try to open a support case with Adobe about this, now we know for sure that it's not a problem with Muse itself, but with the latest version of the CC Desktop app.
Cheers, Happy Christmas from me too,
...In my experience, one or two of the processes are quite stubborn, and keep on restarting again!
For anyone who doesn't know, you just right click on the processes in the Task Manager, and select 'end task'.
I also went into the Startup tab of Task Manager, and disabled all the Adobe processes from running at boot.
That helped a lot.
Bear in mind that you may well need some or all of them running if you have other Adobe CC apps installed, but I only have Muse, so that's not an issue.
georhansc,
i found the following: Kudos to Adam Mehlhaff from the Adobe Muse Support forum on facebook. In fact, the method he suggested was the only one that worked besides other proposals and I was able to launch Muse, make changes to my pages and upload the updated pages. At first I was a bit skeptical as Adam is on WIN 11 and I am on WIN 10, but it worked perfectly. This is certainly not a permanent solution, but at least I was able to start Muse and make the urgent changes. How did I do? I w
...hola esta es la solución a este problema

yes, that's expected during the time that repair is occurring, the cc desktop app is disabled and allows muse to open.

Thanks very much!
We selected for the adobe creative program “Uninstall” and after this we started "Repair". We started since this time the Muse program.
It works. Fantastic, we can finish all the open projekts!

I tried it on the Mac. Perfect solution! Instructions:
Go to Utilities, select Adobe Installers and click "Uninstall Adobe Creative Cloud". Then click the repair-button. The installer is loading. After about ten seconds, start Adobe Muse while downloading. Muse will then start without any problems...

Christophb: This is amazing! I'm on an iMac OS Monterey and on 12/16/23, with no apparent system updates, Muse 2018 would suddenly quit unexpectedly upon launching. I then searched this thread and went through it to find "Mac" (not Windows). And I did the Adobe CC uninstall and Repair and then tried to launch Muse. After a longer launch period, giving me some hope, it crashed again. THEN I followed your instruction to launch Muse after just 10 seconds of the Repair process and it launched!! THANK YOU!
Is this a one-time fix or do I have to do the CC unstall/Repair each time launching Muse (still worth it!)?

Surprised but this actually worked for me. I tried all other fixes like pasting the dll's from another Adobe App, cleaning CC and reinstalling, compatibility mode, disconnecting from the internet and running as admin, etc. Uninstalled CC App and hit repair then immediately launched Muse and it worked normally!

I tried to uninstall to repair and all it did was uninstall. I have creative cloud but now i have no way to install in?!
Is there a way to get my coou of muse back to install? I only want to make a couple edits. Oof

thank you

you can try updating your cc desktop app, but for others, don't uninstall muse if you want it.

Have you tried running Muse without CC Desktop installed? It should still work, although you will still be prompted to sign in of course.
If you want to reinstall CC Desktop, the installer is here -

My god!!!!!! it worked!!!!!! great tip!!!!!!!!!!!!! thank you, thank you, LOL. I tried different methods

goid to hear!
for others that solution used
start the win uninstaller for cc desktop app > select repair, not uninstall > immediately start muse (while repair is occupying the cc app).

That actually works - sort of...
The problem is that once you restart the CC app, Muse dies. So it it necessary to edit in Muse while the CC is off, save the files and upload to web host or save as HTML for later upload. Does not work if fonts are Typekit as there is no Typekit account active until CC app is started.
Adobe has really messed this up!

This only works when the repair process is going on and CC is totally disabled. Going into Task Manager and killing all the CC events does not work. Launching Muse starts up several CC processes which end up killing Muse.
It is a real nuisance to have to do this every time you want to use Muse, but better than not being able to use it at all.

The obvious fix for the Typekit issue is to go into the site and replace all Typekit fonts with standard websafe fonts. Enable "show Typekit as Pink" and look for any text with a pink highlight. Replace fonts and save. Uploading to site and save as HTML will then work.
Try to save up all your changes to existing sites and do them all as a batch. Then you can re-enable CC app and close Muse.
