Unable to set maximum number of files to be opened

Upon opening program, error displays "Unable to set maximum number of files to be opened." I did research suggesting to open terminal and typing "$ ulimit" but I get "unlimited" as the output. The forum then suggested to report this bug here.

System: Mac Pro Late 2013
OS: Mac OS Mojave (10.14.4)
Product: Adobe Illustrator CS6, part of the Design Web Premium Suite

    I am also looking for help on this. When opening Illustrator CS6 it says, "unable to set maximum number of files to be opened". Photoshop still works.

    Ok managed to fix it!

    Version 16.0.4 is working for me. I did an upgrade via the Application Manager accessed via Photoshop.
