Premiere Pro via Creative Cloud won't install on my M1 MacOS Monterey.

I keep trying to install Premiere Pro via CC Desktop app. It keeps getting stuck, I keep cancelling after an hour or so.  I did the "repair" thing via the uninstaller. Now CC seems to know I am on an M1 mac (it didn't before), but the problem persists, it goes to 50% in 2-3 minutes then gets stuck for an hour or more between 70-85%. 

Honestly,  I don't even really want to use Creative Cloud. CC is great for people who need it but this feels like bloatware to me. It does things that I did not ask it to do. I did not ask for a menubar icon at the top of the screen. I did not ask it to open the app upon startup. 

I am trying to find a link to directly install Premiere Pro without using the desktop CC app.  Right now I am paying for an app that won't install on my computer through Adobe's bloatware.

SOLVED!!

Just copy and paste this line into Terminal:

/usr/sbin/softwareupdate --install-rosetta

Follow the prompt in Terminal (Type the letter "A" and hit enter) and you're good to go! 🙂

      Fixed it. Creative Cloud doesn't tell you this, but you need to download and install Media Encoder FIRST before you install Premiere Pro. 

      If you try to install PP before ME, it sees that ME isn't there, but you can't install two apps at the same time. So it just gets stuck.

        don't think that's true.  I've done many installations of Premiere on my and clients computers and never had to even select ME to be installed.  I always installed Premiere and then CC automatically installed ME...  Same thing happens when you do an update... It updates Premiere and then automatically updates ME...  Not sure what happened on your system and glad you were able to get up and running...
