    Hello,

    If you need to open the file, there are a couple of easy methods that you can use:

    1-If you have google chrome-Email the file to yourself as an attachment. Once you open the email, you can click on the file icon, and it will open it in the browser. If you download the attachment you will have the same problem, and it can not be opened. This method is only good if you want to read what is inside the file quickly.

    2-This the best and permanent solution- Use other available programs. Right-click on the file - select:

    Open with-Search the Microsoft store- There are several programs; some are paid, some are free, some may work, and some may not work. Select  PDF X: FREE PDF EDITOR & PDF READER and install it. By using this program, your problem will be solved. This program can be upgraded to the full version, which has other capabilities, but you have to pay for the full version.

    Hi Riyajuddinkhan,

    As the error message shared above, I assume this might be happening with a specific document or you are getting the error with multiple document that you open?

    Check with a different file and check if you have any pending updates of the application to install?

    Launch Acrobat>Help>Check for update.

    Still no luck, then do share the file with us to test the same at our end.

    "You can share the file with us via email. And you can send it to the email that is shared via private message. Please do mention your forum thread in the subject"

    Regards,

    Akanchha
