Hi there

Hope you are doing well and thanks for reaching out.

The error code
0xc0000005 ("The application is unable to start correctly") in Adobe Acrobat is a common Windows error related to memory access violations. This issue often stems from corrupted application files, conflicting plugins, or system-level problems.

please remove the application using the Acrobat cleaner tool https://adobe.ly/3KVUmQ0, reboot the computer and reinstall the application using the direct link https://adobe.ly/4rRVmW3

Let us know how it goes.

Hi there

Thanks for trying the suggestions. As the error persists even after a clean reinstall, please let us know your Windows version, whether any third-party plugins are installed, and if this happens at launch or after a specific action.

Also try to create a new test user profile with full admin rights and try using the application there and see if that works.
