Please follow the below mentioned steps:

1- End Process/ Task from Task Manager in the same sequence as mentioned below from task manager. see, Open Task Manager

  • Creative Cloud
  • Core sync & Core sync Helper
  • CC library & CCX processes
  • Adobe Desktop Common
  • Adobe Update daemon
  • Adobe IPC Broker
  • After this anything that says adobe on it do a force quit for it

2- C:\Users\<user_name>\AppData\Local\Adobe\ AAM UPDATER  and OOBE both ( App data & Program Data is hidden folder please see, Show Hidden Files and Folders in Windows 7, 8.x, 10, or Vista  )

3- Reset the hosts file - Redirected IP addresses can prevent you from completing the licensing process.

4- Turn OFF any security software installed along with system Firewall, also if your have any browser Add On installed for advertisement blocking turn that Off too.

****These changes are temporary you can revert these changes back to normal once your Creative Cloud app is up and running ****

5- Launch Creative Cloud app again and sign in

Let us know if this helps.
