CC Libraries missing from Photoshop menu

[WillBryan]

I'm suddenly missing CC Libraries in my Photoshop menu and palettes and can't determine how to find it. This actually happened a while back and I just figured it was a bug and would be fixed in the next update. I'm pretty sure there has been an update since, and still no CC Libraries to be found.

And I don't mean the content won't load in the Libraries palette. I mean there is no mention of libraries anywhere, including when I search for it in under the Help tab. Libraries work fine in all my other CC apps.

Is this a bug or am I missing something obvious?

Thanks in advance for any help! -WB

Resetting the Photoshop Preferences to default resolved the issue and made the CC Libraries reappear.

Thanks for your help!

I'm stuck in the same place - when I try to open libraries panel in Dreamweaver, Photoshop, Illustrator  I get message to install Creative cloud applications. Here's what I tried so far:

1.     Tried every solution suggested in 2017 post about restoring library functionality: resetting, deactivating, clearing caches, deleting cc libraries directory.
2.      Uninstalled alll of the creative cloud desktop applications. Ran the Adobe CC cleaner to clean all applications and then re-installed.
3. Reset the preferences to default as suggested in this thread.

NO LIBRARIES!!!!

The library panel was working properly before Microsoft's latest Windows update, which I can't roll back. Desperately need help!!

Thanks,

I also have this problem AND, the EXPORT AS function spontaneously stops functioning. In order to get them back, I have to delete all my preferences and start over - setting up the workspace and getting the preferences right. This happens once every other week or so.

I work in Photoshop almost every single day. So, this is not something I like to repeat on a regular basis. Workspace setup is important for my workflow.

MAC OSX 10.15.7
Photoshop 2021 v.22.1.0

Reinstalling worked for me as for January 2022
