Adobe CC 2019 stuck on welcome screen

I've just updated my apps to the 2019 version of Creative Cloud, and I just started to see problems. When the app is opening, welcome screen is getting stuck, it's not loading anyway. I already tried to uninstall all my previous installations, run Adobe CC Cleaner, restarted my windows a lot of times, and then after installing adobe Creative Cloud app again and Illustrator, bingo, start screen is loading forever and ever.

See the image below, that's the only thing I see when I click to open Illustrator, but also is happening to Photoshop too.

Is that a bug or my windows installation could be corrupted? And, for the 2nd case, why the 2018 version was working fine?

I managed to solve this problem: just renamed one folder and... voila!

Follow these instructions and let us know, if it works for you, too!

C:\Users\'your user name'\AppData\Local\Temp

Delete what's in there (I just renamed the folder by adding "old" in the name's end)

I saw your replies and appreciate it but this procedure hasn't helped me at all

Great, that really did it! I just deleted the content of the temp folder. Some files couldn't be deleted, but it worked anyway. Thanks so much for posting this. This Illustrator behavior was totally annoying!

You will face the issue when you are sign out from the creative cloud app.

It works for AE and PS ....But not for PP..

Every new version of PS we find a problem and all we can do just waiting for new update

I tried so many things from the forums and it might help you or others while Adobe fixes the issue. You can disable the welcome screen in the preferences.
