just downloaded indesign and when i attempt to open it the app crashes. Says that it cannot open certain plugins because other dependent plugins failed to load. What does this mean and what is the remedy?

Try temporarily emptying your (macOS) Applications > Adobe InDesign > Plug-ins folder. I like to make a Plug-outs folder for stuff like this. Then relaunch InDesign and see if that solves the problem.

I too have had success with the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool that Eugene references above.

Hi nic5E24,
with InDesign 16.3 something fundamental for 3rd party plug-ins has changed.
Their source code must be compiled to a new version. Ask the maker of your 3rd party plug-in for an updated version.

Are you really have some 3rd-party plugins for Indesign installed?
