Last Wed I got this error after opening CC Desktop:
Could not enable sync. Creative cloud need to rename your folder "Creative Cloud Files" to enable syncing. Please close any open documents or restart your machine and try again.
I had not documents open. I restarted the PC but to no avail. I didn't need anything to be synced at the time so I let it go. Thursday and Friday all was fine. Today I am getting the error again. I have been having a lot of issues with CC Desktop signing out every time I shut off the PC. I have to uninstall the app, delete the recommended files and re-install. All works fine after that, except now I can't sync files, and off course, today I need to sync some of the work I did over the weekend.
Online search was no help.
Windows 10, Dell XPS 8900, 16MB Ram.
Thanks in advance.

I know this has been out there for a while but I found something that made a change today. I looked in my users folder and found that there were 5 archived Creative Cloud Files folders. I deleted them and tried to sync, and it is now working. This is after searching the forums, and spending around two hours with the help desk, who said it was a Microsoft Issue. It is still in the process of syncing so I am not sure it works, but it is much farther than it has been in months.
I hope this helps someone.
