Hi When I download and run CC installer (CreativeCloudSetup.exe) on Win8 It stalls at about 8% and will not download the files needed. 

To clarify I can download the CreativeCloudSetup.exe just fine, but when I run it it stalls when trying to download files.    Here is what it says after sitting at about 8% for a minute or 2.

I have tried to restart and re-download the file, as well as the suggestions as noted below:

I will download the new CC installer from the llink below.

https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud

If the first install attempt fails I'll rename the Adobe OOBE folder (out-of-box experience) to OOBE.old, then will try the install again. {Adobe OOBE folder locations for my system are below. Likely yours are the same.}

C:\Users\[User Name]\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE

C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe\OOBE

They didnt work.

    A chat support person named Shavana (sp?) was very helpful and got my issues resolved.  It was quite involved and required using the Adobe cleaner tool as well as a couple of file locations deep within windows (hosts file, AppData, sending a log from the temp directory....

    It would be nice if Adobe posted these precise steps for all to use.  Anyway, issues resolved!

    Hi pillguy,

    Please let us know the network environment are you in?  Which operating system are you using?  Do you utilize a proxy server or a software firewall?.

    Please try the steps mentioned in the kb: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/remote-server-responding-installing-aam.html / http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-update-server-repsonding-cs4.html .

    You may even try download using different internet connection if possible.
