I've been trying to install the Creative Cloud Desktop in Windows 7, but I keep getting the failure message. I've tried the instructions here: http://www.ana-todor.ro/simple-fix-for-creative-cloud-desktop-failed-to-install-error/15/08/2013/, but it's still not working.
Anybody have any ideas?

I've tried those steps several times now and still no joy.
Any other ideas? I have CS5.5 installed on this machine, should I try uninstalling that first?

DCWilson451 if you are continuing to experience difficulties then I would recommend you first try installing in a newly created local Administrator account.
If the installation still fails then please uninstall all available Adobe Creative software through the Programs & Features Control Panel. Once done then please use the CS Cleaner Tool to verify that all Adobe software has been removed. You should then be able to install the Creative Cloud application.

I've tried creating a new administrator account. And that didn't work.
I've tried removing everything Adobe from my computer and running the CS Cleaner Tool. And that didn't work.
What next?
