    I spent a good 6-7 hours on a 184 error today and after support gave up i managed to fix it. Turns out i had a .dll file that was corrupted in one of the Adobe directorys and wouldn't move or delete even if i uninstalled Adobe CC or used the cleaner tool. After i changed the file name to .bak rebooted and deleted the file everything worked as before

    Mine was located in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\Shell\CC.2017 and was called idicon.dll

    Hope this can help someone out since support can't seem to figure it out.

    Thanks for this I had exactly the same problem with indesign followed your instructions and it was fix straight away.  Thank you!!!  I have problems before with indesign but couldn't remember how I fixed it last time.  What I do remember is that it took me a long time to figure it out and caused me a huge headache.  This was simple easy and headache free.
