Hi Raman

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the delay in response. As described the Acrobat Reader DC is not working after you updated your Windows 10 OS.

Please try to reboot the computer once and then try to open the application and see if that helps. If it still doesn't work, do you get any error message when you open the application? If yes please share the screenshot of the same for a better understanding.

As mentioned, you have already tried to repair, remove through Adobe cleaner tool and reinstalled with no success, please run the Acrobat Cleaner Tool using the link: https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/Labs/cleaner.html reboot the computer once and reinstall the application using the link: https://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

If it still doesn't work please create a new test user profile in Windows with full admin rights and try using the application there and check.

Regards

Amal
