I also have the issue of not seeing the apps tab in the Desktop app, I have had an error which came up when I reinstalled the desktop app. If I log into the website and look to at the desktop downloads it show as install trial even though I have a full license.
If anyone could advise it would be greatly appreciated.

Hey I had the same issue. I found that using this go to folder path found the ServiceConfig.xml file as mine was not showing up anywhere as well, I guess it was hidden.
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE/Configs/ServiceConfig.xml
You should then be able to change the false parameters to true.

I don't have the ServiceConfig.xml file in my Configs folder, I tried adding it with the true parameter but that didn't work. Not quite sure what else to try?

If you do not see Service config file, then please close all the Adobe processes from task manager of from Activity Monitor on mac and rename the OOBE folder which is in C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Adobe (In Windows) and /library/application support/adobe (In Mac) and then download and reinstall the Creative Cloud.
This should resolve the issue.
Thanks & regards,
Sumit Singh

This worked for me, however I could not edit the file because of permissions. The solution was to temporarily change the group of the file. In Terminal:
cd /Library/Application Support/Adobe/OOBE/Configs
sudo chgrp staff ServiceConfig.xml
open ServiceConfig.xml -a TextWrangler.app
(change "false" to "true" as described above, and save)
sudo chgrp wheel ServiceConfig.xml
Then I had to reboot for the Apps tab to become visible (quitting the CC desktop app and relaunching it didn't work).

Thank you Sumit,
changing the word false to true solved my problem on OS X 10.11.5

How is this not marked as the correct answer? This problem still exists in 2021. Why can't new installs of the Adobe Creative Cloud application correct this problem so manually editing an XML file isn't necessary?

Is there a proper answer in 2022?

Hi, I also have this same issue (no apps tab at all).
I tried the solution everyone has been mentioning: Apps tab missing from Creative Cloud Desktop
but it doesn't work. I edited the file, closed the Creative Cloud process, and restarted my computer, but the app tab is still missing. I'm unable to install any apps at the moment.
Is there an alternative solution?

Please delete the ServiceConfig.xml file and restart your machine and then launch Creative Cloud. You will see Apps Tab back in there.
Cheers!

I have the same problem. The apps tab is missing.
I’ve followed the instructions from Apps tab missing from Creative Cloud Desktop as well as this thread and still nothing.
I’ve renamed the OOBE folder, killed all the Adobe processes, reinstalled Creative Cloud and there’s still no Configs folder, no ServiceConfig.xml file and no apps tab.
What can I do?

Hi. I couldn't edit the ServiceConfig.xml also. So i duplicate the Config folder and change the ServiceConfig inside it. Then i delete the original Config Folder and let just the duplicate (without the name 'duplicate').
I reboot and the Apps panel was there.
Don't know for how long it will be there, since my Apps Tab were there and then suddenly disappeared. But at least now is working.
