Creative Cloud Desktop App doesn't open, progress wheel just spins.

To fix this, delete the contents of the OOBE folder and relaunch the Creative Cloud desktop app

•     Quit the Creative Cloud desktop app from the gear icon in the upper-right corner.

•     Browse to the following location based on your operating system.

        Mac OS: /Users/<user folder>/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE
            Note: The  /Users/<user folder>/Library/ is hidden by default after 10.7. See the notes above about how to find these.
       

        Windows: C:\Users\<user folder>\AppData\Local\Adobe\OOBE
             Note: The AppData is hidden with Windows default settings. See the notes above about how to find these.

•     Delete the entire contents of the OOBE folder.

•     Restart the computer and launch the Creative Cloud desktop app again.

    Note: The app can take slightly longer than usual to load with this solution, as content in the OOBE folder is rebuilt after launch.

This will occur if there are any Adobe applications on your computer that have the Update feature disabled. If you already have the Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop app, you may see that the Apps tab is missing.

If so restore the apps tab.
