Adobe Reader Error 10:10 (IE 11)

Hello.

 

I have about 250 machines on our domain and starting a few days ago, my users cannot open a PDF within Internet Explorer. Trying to do so gives the following: 

 

"There is a problem with Adobe Reader. If it is running, please exit and try again. (10:10)"

 

Of course manually killing any Adobe process does not work. I have tried disabling enhanced security as well as Protected Mode at Startup, which has corrected these errors in the past. However, my only solution for now has been to disable the Adobe Reader add-on for Inter Explorer 11. When this is disabled, it prompts the user to either open or save the document, which works fine. 

 

However, the PDF should be able to open in the browser as it's expected. I'm hoping someone can offer some insight because I have tried every solution Google has brought me to. 

 

Thanks, in advance.

Hope you are doing well and am sorry for the trouble you had. Please install the latest update of Acrobat & Reader 21.007.20091 Planned update, Sept 14, 2021 app and see if you still experience this issue.

 

Update the app from the help menu>select check for updates, install the latest patch and reboot the app and machine if possible.

 

To know more about the latest release, please see: Adobe Acrobat and Reader - September' 21 update is now available!

Let us know how it goes.

I would be thrilled if somebody could provide a link to this, our e-prescribing software relies heavily on acrobat to print scripts and this is significantly impacting our quality of service.

It fixed the issue but somehow when I reboot the system it changes the value for bProtectedMode from 1 to 0 and issues starts occurring.

Hi All,

 

Sorry for the trouble caused.

 

The files that we are sharing over email are for testing purposes only. We cannot share those publicly for now as those DLL needs to go for certification. The team is working on the fix and we will share an update soon.

 

If you would like to test, we can share those with you over email.

 

We appreciate your patience.

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi,

This needs to be fixed permanently, not secretly providing a fix only for those who post on this thread.  What is the workaround?  Please escalate this to development for a permanent solution.

I have 200 computers that are experiencing the same error. The problem started after the last update. We are currently on Version 2021.005.20048 and Windows 10 varying from 1909 to 20H1.

Anyone know if there is a fix yet?
