It still does not work for me. Do you have any other tips?

Dragos: Did you make sure Extension Manager is closed? Check Task Manager if you are unsure. Beyond that, I don’t have any other suggestions, as this information came from Adobe Support.

@Dragos (and others) I had the same problem. Be sure you exit ALL of your Adobe CS programs (I had one open even though the extension had nothing to do with it).

Tried many times, still no luck. I am wondering, was it because I got my adobe software through torrent? But the software runs perfectly. It’s weird.
