Adobe Scout no longer downloadable on 32-bit PCs


Adobe Scout is the breakthrough profiler for flash content, free from Adobe. However since a couple of months I am no longer able to download this app. It has disappeared from the Creative Cloud menu as well. It is no longer packaged with the Adobe Gaming SDK. When you click Download on its official page, it simply brings the Creative Cloud app into focus, but nothing happens. There seems to be no way to acquire this app any more. Existing installs (older versions) show the error "this app has expired". Is there a way to download Scout CC for Windows? Has anyone got it working recently? How?

Solution

  • Scout will not list in Creative Cloud if you are on a 32-bit machine. Switch to a 64-bit machine (Windows or Mac) and then try to download it again.

    The system requirements are:

    • Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit edition)
    • Mac OS X v10.7 or v10.8 operating system
