Question

InDesign crashes on launch, stalled at "Calling Late Initializers"

My enterprise InDesign app will not launch on my new computer. It is downloaded, and from the CC control panel it says Open. When I open, it goes launch  until it reaches "Calling Late Initializers" and then up pops a crash report window saying "AdobeInDesign(64bit)" has crashed.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled both ID and Creative Cloud. I have checked the sync settings and there is nothing to sync (this is a new app for me.) I have rebooted the PC several times. Nothing works.

    Followed directions, found the preferences folders, and deleted them. Tried to launch and still no luck. It's crashing at "Calling Late Initializers." This is happening on other new Windows 10 laptops in the company.

    Nope. Got on a call with Adobe's senior support team (after an unsuccessful
    support call) and they had nothing. I'm cooked

    Hello @Davis269309485dzr,

    Sorry to hear that. Could you share the CASE ID for the interaction you had with our support team, so I can check it on my end?

    Looking forward to hearing from you.
