Hi, I have been facing issues with updating my Creative Cloud desktop app on my Macbook. I was facing issues with Illustrator. The shortcut keys stopped working suddenly. So I tried to uninstall and re-install Illustrator to fix the problem. However, that did not happen. I am being asked to update Creative Cloud app first. I have been trying to do that, but the installation has been stuck at 4 percent for days. I have tried everything, including repairing. The repair either fails due to some 'error'. I have tried uninstalling which doesn't work either.
