Recently moved to Windows 10, and creative cloud isn't working as a result I believe.

All I need CC for is typekit whilst in Indesign.

Thanks, Jack Cole

did you reinstall?

if so, and that failed, do you mean your cc desktop app won't open or you can't can't open indesign?

and what do you see when you try to open the problematic program

Did you upgraded OS from like Windows 8/8.1 to Windows 10  or was it a fresh complete Windows 10 installation?

I installed from Windows seems fine. I needed to use CC within it though to gain access to the typekit.

Thank you both very much for your help


And the CC desktop app won't open, Indesign
