Everything else has been installed without problems (Illustrator, Lightroom, InDesign, etc.), but PHOTOSHOP gives this error. I use a lot Photoshop and i can't work!

Eduardocd the error is indicating that the current User account is restricting access to required directory.  It appears that it is currently facing errors updating the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2017\ directory.  I would recommend reviewing the install log to determine the exact location the failure is occurring.  You can find details on how to locate the install log at Creative Cloud download and install errors​.

Once you have located the required directory you can find details on how to update the file permissions for the current User account at Error exit code 6, exit code 7 installing Adobe Creative Cloud​.

If you have any questions then please update this discussion.
