Learn what to do when you are no longer able to open Creative Cloud apps and they crash when you try to open them.

Why do my Creative Cloud apps crash when I try opening them?

When you launch some Creative Cloud apps, the application window is briefly displayed, and then the application exits without an error message. This usually occurs when an update is pending for your Creative Cloud app or for the Creative Cloud desktop app.

How to fix the issue

Try the following solutions in the given order. Go to the next solution only if a preceding one doesn't fix the issue.

Solution 1: Sign out and sign back in

Once you are signed out, sign in to the Creative Cloud desktop app.
