I recently had to reboot my laptop to its settings for 4 days ago, and ever since then I cannot seem to download CC app at all.
I don't even get an error message, the installer just disappears after the Initialising Installer stage.
I have tried using the uninstaller tool, but when I try to reinstall the same thing happens.
This is very frustrating. I did not expect to have to pay for the CS6 products and to not be able to download the software itself.
I pay monthly for this service and the more days I go unable to download the software seems frankly a waste of my money.
Your help would be much appreciated.
Thank you.
For Windows :
Open C:drive and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe.
Open Adobe folder and delete folders named Adobe Application Manager and OOBE.
Important :
Navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe.
Open Adobe folder and if present delete Adobe Creative Cloud folder.
Then try to install Creative Cloud desktop application.

This doesnt work. It just starts the download and then disappears. I have tried the cleaner tool and reboot the computer and nothing happens. I need the software for my work everyday, so this is a big problem for me!

Jannemaki have you utilized the steps listed in Error: "Failed to install" | Creative Cloud Desktop to reinstall the Creative Cloud Desktop application? If not please feel free to update this discussion regarding any of the listed steps.

This is the only method that worked for me, thank you so much. I think my problem was that different previous settings and versions were confusing for the creative cloud installer and therefore it was disappearing and not opening every time after installation.
Very grateful!

if that fails, repair per https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/creative-cloud-install-stuck.html
if that fails and you have windows, open your control panel > add/remove programs > cc desktop app > repair
if that fails, uninstall using the correct uninstaller from https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html#sa_src=web-mes... and then reinstall using*
if that fails, do a clean cc install carefully following each applicable step:

I am having this same problem. Did you figure it out? Today I had to reboot my computer to a week or so ago. I try to download creative cloud and it just disappears. I have restarted my computer countless times. I am unable to download the cleaning tool because it won't let me progress with out a disk in the driver. Please help if you figured it out!
