Users are now presented with an Activation Failure dialogue box on first launch of a Creative Cloud app; this started appearing during the week commencing 4 September 2017. Before this client computers were activating on launch of Photoshop etc. seamlessly.
I have already followed the suggestions at: Resolve connection errors with Adobe Creative Cloud and Creative Suite applications
There isn't a problem with the internet or firewall blocking here, and the message appears whether or not the client computer is behind a firewall. Other web services can be accessed successfully.
Clicking Try Again activates Creative Cloud license, but I receive many support calls from users querying this message. The client iMacs are the same model, and imaged using the same method.
How can I suppress this spurious message?

I should add that I have tried contacting support whilst signed in, in different browsers, after deleting cookies, clearing caches, and a support telephone number is not listed and the chat function is permanently 'not available'.
Posting my query in this forum is a result of trying to contact support and not getting any support.
