Cant Connect to Server to Update Creative Cloud

Things were working just fine until I decided to update Indesign. Now I get to at most 30% before the program stops and shows me this:

I cannot do anything else with my creative suite, it just brings me back to this every time.

My computer uses Windows 11 btw, I've tried looking for help on this and everything I see uses MacOs so I have no idea what to do for my computer.

 

Thank you for you time,

Jonah

Thank you everyone who responded to this post, the problem has been resolved!

 

I uninstalled, then I changed my firewall settings back to default (I'm not sure why it wasn't default already, I've never edited them before) and this allowed me to reinstall everything and it's all working and updating properly now!

I just restarted it, and it downloaded farther than before, to about 57% before it stopped again.

uninstall every cc app including preferences per https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html

then uninstall the cc desktop app, again using the correct uninstaller per https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html#sa_src=web-mes...

clean your computer of cc files per http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

check for, and if available, update your os

if windows is your os, repair all ms visual c++ versions that can be repaired (use google if you don't know how to do this)

if windows is your os update your ms visual c++, if it can be updated (use google if you don't know how to do this)

restart your computer (don't skip this)

reinstall the cc desktop app using the "alternative download links" at the bottom of the page at https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-app-download.html

use the desktop app to install your cc programs/trials

NOTE: win 11 users that have trouble with the latest win 10 installer often have success with the older win 10 installer.

Jonah, in addition to Kglad and PeruBob's helpful suggestions, can you clarify what type of Creative Cloud membership you are using? I see you just signed up for an individual plan today, but your original post seems to indicate you have previously used InDesign on the computer. How old a version of InDesign are you upgrading from?

 

Is there anything else we should be aware of? Is the Windows 11 computer or network it is attached to managed by an organization?

 

We look forward to your updates; the more detailed the information, the more the Download and Install community can help you with the error, Jonah.

 

Do not hesitate to contact our chat support at https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?rghtup=autoOpen if you would like direct assistance updating InDesign.
