Creative Cloud Desktop does not download

I started having issues with this on one computer only and got some "expert" help which turned out to be a bad idea. Now this is so screwed up I have no idea how to fix it. My "expert" deleted several files so I have no idea what to do next. At this point the CC desktop does not even download, simply quits seconds into the process. Below is the output of the log tool collection. Any help would be appreciated. Maybe there is a way to remove all Adobe CC files from this computer and start from scratch.

Correct answer Jeffrey_A_Wright

Jeff, nothing recommended has worked for us to this point. I use a Mac and have Time Machine so I am considering simply restoring the contents of my folder ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe to the condition it was in when everything worked and see what happens. Any reason you can see that this might backfire?


Davidk40989073 I would advise against restoring the directories from Time Machine.  Individuals commonly face Configuration Error 16 when launching Adobe applications after restoring the files using Time Machine.  It is likely that this would exacerbate your current errors.

Davidk40989073 I would recommend you try repeating the steps listed in "Failed to install" error received when installing Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app under a newly created local administrator account.  You can find details on how to set up a new User account at Install or run Adobe applications in new user account | Mac OS X .

Did you not read my post??  I clearly stated that I already tried BOTH of those recommendations and neither worked.  Do you have another solution?

Baracuda if you are facing errors with the installation of the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop application then please utilize the steps listed in "Failed to install" error received when installing Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app​.

If you have already used the CC Cleaner Tool then please utilize the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop application uninstaller utility available at Uninstall the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop application to help ensure the previous installation of the Creative Cloud desktop app is completely removed.

Hi David,

Sorry you're having difficulties... Try this:

Uninstall the Adobe Creative Cloud desktop application

Then reboot your computer and reinstall it.

If that doesn't fix it, then do the same with this:

Use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems

Hope that helps!

Hello,  I am having the same problem.  I tried uninstalling Creative Cloud desktop and reinstalling.  It says "Initializing Installer" then "Downloading Creative Cloud Desktop" then quits.  No errors or anything.

I then searched online and followed the instructions to rename the OOBE to OOBE.old and try again... no luck.  I then followed other instructions that said to remove the contents of the OOBE folder.... no luck.  I even uninstalled ALL of my Adobe Master Collection Apps, which I use professionally on a daily basis and followed up using the Cleaner app... no luck and now all my apps are gone and I can't do any work!   How do I erase EVERY LAST TRACE of Adobe products from my Mac and start from scratch as if they were never installed in the first place?

Hey Barracuda,

We responded to the OP at the same time. Didn't see your post originally.

The Cleaner tool should be able to remove every last trace of whatever you tell it to.

But a further option that can work when nothing else does would be to download & install the Creative Cloud Desktop app using the direct links.

I am in the same boat as Barracuda. I simply want all of it gone so I can start over. I used Apple's Aperture for years with nary an issue aand this Adobe business really irritates me. BTW, direct links appears to be Windows oriented and I use a Mac.
