On step 6 here the link leads to a 404. I've been trying to get Creative Cloud installed for an hour now. Really curious why this seems like such a common pain point.

install 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

use the desktop app to install your cc programs/trials

NOTE: win 11 users that have trouble with the latest win 10 installer often have success with the older win 10 installer.
