Adobe Acrobat Reder not opening.

Question

Hi,I am facing an issue on most of my systems from last month with adobe acrobat reader & editor, not opening. When I try to open any file in Adobe. In Task Manager > Details > AcroRd32.exe runs only for 5 seconds and automatically closes without any error.I tried to reinstall adobe acrobat reader & editor. End task of Adobe Update service & restart system. Both are working on some system. but some have repeated issues after trying both steps.Please help to resolve this issue.

Hi Vikas31007895kc9t,

Thank you for reaching out, and sorry about the trouble.

Try reinstalling the application using the following steps:
-Remove the application and run the cleaner tool (https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/Labs/cleaner.html).
-Reboot the machine
-Install Adobe Acrobat Reader from the following page: https://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/.

If the issue still occurs, create a new user account on your machine and install Acrobat Reader. Check if it works,

Let us know how it goes.

Thanks,

Meenakshi
