I think my problem was that in step 4 I was doing the same thing as in step 3, I was typing the ~ symbol for both steps, then I finally realized that step 4 didn't have the ~ symbol.  After a million times (ok maybe a thousand...lol) of doing your steps over and over I finally discovered my error and voila it worked.  Thank you so much for helping people like me who have no clue what to do or what you had me do to fix it, but it sure worked.    I don't understand why this install had to be so complicated.

Thank you so much, worked a treat. I have copied your answer and saved it.

Interesting, I tried to bypass the last step as I had already downloaded Creative cloud today. That didn't work, but once I followed your link and downloaded it again. It worked.

Thank you so much.
