Apps won't launch

[melissah64712644]

When I click on the icon at the top of my computer adobe drops down, but when I try to go to the applications all I get is a loading applications and then says click here. I hit the click here button but then it doesn't work. I looked at the forum about this issue and tried some of the solutions but it didn't work. The only solution I didn't try was uninstalling and reinstalling the program. I don't want to call the people because I have had two very rude people talk to me on on chat and the other by phone. Can someone please help me?

Adobe Creative Cloud desktop app doesn't open or shows a spinning progress wheel

if you get to solution 3 and that fails:

uninstall everything cc including preferences, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-remove-app.html

then uninstall the cc desktop app, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/help/uninstall-creative-cloud-desktop-app.html

clean your computer of cc files per http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html

remove your oobe folder

restart your computer (don't skip this)

reinstall the cc desktop app, https://creative.adobe.com/products/creative-cloud.

if you're unable to install the cc desktop app at this stage, use an administrator account (solution 4 here, https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/creative-cloud-missing-damaged.html)

use the desktop app to install your cc programs/trials

I got to Solution 4 where I delete the OOBE folder or that might be Solution 3. I deleted the OOBE folder but that didn't really do much. I keep getting a notice about updating the apps, but can't really do that when the applications aren't loading. I will try Solution 5 then of uninstalling and reinstalling the application to see if that works. Thanks!
