Thank you

before posting the question I did check the log files, but the only action suggested there was to rename a file. It was not clear which one.

After re-downloading multiple times the issue seems to have resolved itself.

Moving the location of the temporary file seem's to have solved this problem. I  move it to, c:files and installation was successful after that.

It is located under : Preferences/ Creative Cloud / Files

Hi!

I had the same problem, but now I fix it!

I just got to C:/ProgramFiles and there should be a folder that made into a shortcut format, that can't really be accesed, called Adobe.

All you have to do is to delete it and then create it again by pressing right click :/New/Folder.

After all, the problem should be fixed!

Reply me anytime!
