• Updates will not download and install - NO ERROR CODE - updates remain at 0%

  For Adobe Support.

  I get the popup "update" whenever I connect to my computer and it gives me an error message but no code error. The update starts at 0% and stays there indefinitely.

  It's VERY frustrating because on top of working 10 hours today, I have now lost another hour, trying in vain to find a solution.

  By quitting their stand alone suite (CS5, 6 etc) and later support for it, Adobe has FORCED me to use their Cloud Creative suite subscription. While I HATE not being able to buy a standalone program, I like the CC Suite and I'm PAYING for this subscription that provides the latest updates. Now, all of a sudden the updates will not download and install and Adobe wants me to follow a set RIDICULOUSLY long and complicated steps to solve the problem? It's a complete and absolute nonsense!

  I am a self-controlled, respectable and intelligent individual, but it makes me want to use profanity! I HAVE NO TIME FOR THIS NONSENSE.

  According to the latest information (see: Adobe : Cloud accelerates since 3.4 million paid creative members |) ProDesignTools) there is over 3.4 million people like me PAY for reliable use!

  Frankly, I'm so frustrated that I am very close to spearhead a national campaign to educate these users 3.4 million on the negligence of Adobe supported because it's visitors!

  WE SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM! ADOBE NEEDS TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM! When you get this figured out, I'll certainly appreciate an e-mail from your. In the meantime. Be aware that each passing day, and whenever I see this pop up, it serves as a reminder that Adobe does not respect what they promised!

  Kind regards
