Illustrator's screen is frozen

[Yoshi26665894qn7r]

After Win. Update I tried opening my Illustrator to continue my work but when it opened it gave me a box saying that I must read and accept the Adobe General Terms of Use. However when I try to click "accept" it doesn't open the app nor let me exit it. (The screen is frozen to this box). I tried uninstall reinstall, printer pooler, and OOBE reset but all went to the drain and the app still frozen to this screen. 

PLEASE HELP ASAP.

Hello @Yoshi26665894qn7r,

Sorry to hear about this experience and for the late response. Would you mind trying the suggestions shared in this community post (https://community.adobe.com/t5/download-install-discussions/repeatedly-asked-to-accept-license-agree...) and checking if it helps?

Looking forward to your response.

Thanks,

Anubhav

Hello Anubhav. 

I checked the link you attached and went through all the comments. Unfortunately, it's not related to my problem. Since it doesn't respond to me whenever I click "accept" nor "exit the application", it's frozen in place and the whole screen isn't (click able), thus I can't even click on the terms of use nor choose acceptance or exiting the app. 

So, what can I do when I NEED the app for a project that is due?

Hello Yoshi,

Thanks for confirming that. Would you mind trying the following steps to check if it helps:

1. Close all Adobe applications
2. Start the Creative Cloud app with Administrative privileges. 
   Right-click on its' icon and choose "Run as Administrator"
   
   
3. Sign out and sign back in
4. Relaunch Illustrator as an Administrator (Right-click on Illustrator's icon and choose "Run as Administrator")

Looking forward to your response.

Regards.

Hello again Anubhav:) 

I went through all the steps you provided (also restarted my laptop to make sure everything is OK) and when I relaunched illustrator as administrator like you said, unfortunately..... the problem is still there and still that box isn’t clickable. 

Thank you for your patience and I wish you a great day/night.

Thanks for checking that, @Yoshi26665894qn7r. Would you mind checking if there is any Windows update pending? Also, would you mind confirming the OS & its built no. along with a screenshot of the error?

Also, would you mind checking if Creative Cloud apps are running under a new admin user account or not?

We will be looking forward to your response.

Thanks & Regards,

Hello Mr. Anshul

Oh yes! My OS is Windows10 Home Vers. and the build num. is 19044.2130. 

Also, yes, I did check if there are any updates pending and found none. And the CC app is running with my account. (the SS is attached)
