"Unable to Reach Adobe Services" to download Creative Cloud - Tried Everything!

[chill113]

I have tried every solution online. It gets to about 2% in download then rushes to 100% before displaying the error message. I have had creative cloud on my computer in the past. My specs: Windows 10 Pro Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10700F CPU @ 2.90GHz 2.90 GHz

- I've gone through this entire page (https://helpx.adobe.com/ca/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html)

- My windows is updated and I've done these steps: https://helpx.adobe.com/ca/download-install/kb/unable-to-reach-adobe-servers.html

- I've disabled my firewall

- I've run as adminstrator

- I've cleaned my computer from all Adobe stuff before trying to reinstall

- I checked my connection to the Activation servces on the Adobe site, both were good

- My host file is fine

Please help me! Thank you!

If all suggestions have been tried then I suppose its time to contact Adobe support for technical assistance. To contact support follow the instructions given below
1. Go to https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?rghtup=autoOpen
2. Wait a bit on the page that opens up, it should automatically open a chat popup. If that does not happen then look for a call out/chat icon at the bottom right, click over it and the chat popup should open
3. In order to talk to a human type "AGENT" in the chat box
4. If you are not able to get to the chat window, then disable your adblockers, firewall, enable cookies/scripts on your browser. If it still fails then change your browser/machine/network.

P.S. Be mindful of answering anyone who sends you a private message. See the following for more information about scammers

if windows is your os, repair all ms visual c++ versions that can be repaired (use google if you don't know how to do this)

restart your computer (don't skip this)

reinstall the cc desktop app using the "alternative download links" at the bottom of the page at https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install/kb/creative-cloud-desktop-app-download.html
