In the end a very helpful member of the Adobe team helped me and the problem was corrupted fonts. So now running smoothly thank you for all your help

Is this an update or a fresh install?

Any third party plugins?

Did you run the Creative Cloud Cleaner tool between uninstall and reinstall?

 

Try and uninstall, run the Adobe Cleaner tool and then reinstall: https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/cc-cleaner-tool-installation-problems.html

Hi John,

are you using the latest version of the software? Did this issue also occur with some other Adobe suite programs?
