Re: Window Application Error 0xc0000022

I, too, am receiving the error...

Windows - Application Error

The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000022).

Click OK to close the application.

I click OK but the error message continues to stay on screen...

I am using ACROBAT READER DC

Installed: Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (18.011.20038)

Also, I checked for updates... "no updates available"

I am also using Windows 10

I am not tech savvy, so simplistic, easy to understand step-by-step instructions to fix this problem would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi PeggyLea,

    As you get the Windows application error, did you try all the troubleshooting steps mentioned here Application unable to Start correctly 0xc0000022 || 0x00000022

    If that does not help, try to run the cleaner tool Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs on the machine.

    Reboot the machine and re-install the application from here Adobe - Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Distribution

    Check if that helps.

    Let us know how it goes.

    Regards,

    Meenakshi
