Error when trying to run Adobe Premiere

[pooinmypants]

I run the PremierePortable.exe file as an adminstrator per the instructions, Premiere begins loading and I then receive the following error message: "Adobe Premiere Pro could not find any valid editing modes. Please reinstall Adobe Premiere Pro and start again."

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Extract archive, then run .exe file.

Download and install - Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2015 - for 64bit and 32bit. It should fix erroe

I get "The application was unable to start correctly (0x000005) Click OK to close the application"
Win 7 64bit
Run PremierePortable.exe as Admin
I have Visual C++ Redistributable for Visual Studio 2017 installed - tried to install 2015, but wouldn't let me, because newer version installed, I think
I ran AdobeCreativeCloudCleanerTool.exe but didn't help!

Any ideas would be much appreciated!
