Dpopo, the update is unable to complete because the necessary files are already in use by another program or process. Please make sure you have closed After Effects before applying any essential updates. Additional information on Error 184 can be found at https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-download-install-logs.html#error184

 

If you have already closed After Effects, you may want to reboot the computer and try applying the update again. Whatever prevents the WP-Symbol and other files from being updated or moved may not be active after a reboot.

 

Please update this public discussion if you have any additional questions or encounter new errors, Dpopo.
