Solution 1: Rename Adobe folders in the Applications or Program Files folder

Note: Before attempting this solution, make sure that you have attempted to uninstall the programs you are trying to install.

Often, files left over from previous install attempts can lead to read or write file system errors. Check the Applications (Mac OS) or Program Files (Windows) folders for folders left from a previous installation or update attempt.

  1. Navigate to:

    Mac OS: /Applications

    Windows: C:\Program Files\Adobe\

  2. Look for folders that are clearly named for the applications you are trying to install, and rename them. For example, rename Adobe Photoshop CC to Adobe Photoshop CC old.

  3. Check for a folder named AdobePatchFiles and rename it.

  4. (Mac OS only) Rename the Adobe folder in the Applications folder to Adobe old.

  5. Reinstall the software.

  6. If your installation is successful, confirm that your other Adobe applications are working, and then delete the renamed folders.

Solution 2: Verify file permissions

These errors can indicate a problem with file permissions. To resolve them, verify that you have read and write access to the necessary files and folders.
