If I don't choose run as admin, photoshop just directly crashes and audition gives a warning message about settings cannot be saved in dir. While all folder security is set by adobe.
Photoshop chrashes when doing initializing. Indesign as well.. probably other programs from adobe as well haven't tested yet

Premiere launches fine
Other issues: animate cannot update, aero cannot install.

Has been running a year with no problem, now all of sudden these problems.
Adobe what is the fix???

Sadly this doesn't work.. While holding down CTL+ALT+SHIFT photoshop will start but no dialog.
When pressing keys shortly after launching, it does come up with dialog, so preferences reset.
Next time running photoshop (without keys or run as admin) same crash as before...

Link for resetting Audition was using Win 7 or XP and very old version of Audition. Audition 2020 ran fine, removed it for version 2021 which doesn't run without run as admin..

I did everything listed above, uninstalled everything, deleted every adobe dir I could find, ran the cleaner, updated every ms visual C++ I could find in apps, did the reboot, disabled all other apps, windows defender and all, and still have this problem...

Only installed CC app and photoshop last time around, and still crashes on initializing..

I don't want to reinstall windows and everything, but have no clue anymore where to look. I can;t be the only one with this problem.

are au and ps the only adobe programs requiring admin startup?
