"CCX Process" and "CCLibrary" causing 100% CPU load and max fan speed in 16" MacBook Pro?

Ever since I upgraded to MacOS Big Sur, I've encountered an issue when starting up my computer that the CPU load is at 100% and the fans are running at maximum speed. The Activity Monitor shows that the culprit are two Adobe CC-related processes, something called CCXProcess and CCLibrary. The only way to stop this is to Force Quit the processes otherwise the CPU load and overheating will continue as long as my laptop is on.

 

Is this a known issue and is there any fix yet?

Hi Leo,

CCXProcess team has released the update with a fix. It should be CCXProcess 4.1.3 - you can check the version in CCD -> Help -> About Creative Cloud.
Please, let us know if you got an update and if the problem is gone!

Thank you!

So I wanted to offer a little update on my situtaion:

I have identified the exact culprit in my specific case. I understand that a lot of the responses to this thread are not describing the exact same situation that I'm in.

 

The problem in my case was caused by AdGuard. AdGuard is an app that blocks ads and trackers and malware across your entire Mac. A couple months ago, I uninstalled it because I was planning on cancelling my subscription to it. It was around this time that I noticed I was no lo

Hi Maria,
I'm experiencing the same.
Is there any solution for this? This program after Big Sur is drying my battery out in more than 50% than it used to take until it's empty.Captura de ecrã 2021-01-07, às 10.53.28.png

I am seeing CCXProcess at 99%-ish all the time. I've got version 4.1.3.1 of CCXProcess (and Big Sur).

Good to know I'm not the only one.

I sent off some diagnostic information to Adobe. Hope I will get an answer or a fix. 

I tried uninstalling and re-installing Creative Cloud but the problem repeated itself. No fix yet.

Thank you for replying to this thread. This is definitely a software issue as it appeared with the Big Sur update.

 

My only option is to force quit CCXProcess every time I start up my laptop.

 

I have not been given a solution yet.

Does this fix also address the sign in loop issue? I've been dealing with that since September.

This particular fix addresses only one issue related to high CPU usage by CCXProcess. 
Could you please clarify on sign in loop issue?

Hi Hugo,

The update should be automatically triggered via your CCD Application. If you still haven't got it, try to log out and log back in.

Thank you,

CCXProcess update installs automatically via your CCD Application, so there is no need to do anything particular in order for the update to be installed onto your machine. 
You can check the CCXProcess version in CCD Help -> About Creative Cloud. The latest version is 4.1.3.

If you still have the previous version, you can try to log out and log back into CCD, so the updates are triggered. 

Please, let me know if that makes sense.

Thank you,
Mariia
