    If you follow Katie's recommendation make sure that you uninstall and reinstall using the Creative Cloud Desktop app. Also before you reinstall make sure to use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool Use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems . I would also recommend to once again manually delete your preference files before your initial launch of the reinstalled program.
