Hi, My Acrobat is freezing and crashing seriously despite that I have downloaded the recent upgrade version: 19.010.20064.

My system is Windows 10 Pro 1809 (17763.194) and I have a brand new HP ZBook 17 G5 with 32 Gb RAM.

I, too, am having this issue. Version 2019.010.20098. PC is an 8th Gen Intel Core i-7, 16GB RAM, NVMe SSD.

I've tried all the steps at Resolve Acrobat DC intermittent crashes on Windows and continue to have this issue.

Same problem Win 7.   This is a nightmare situation for such a high priced product

Same problem.

Acrobat crashes the browser when I'm downloading a PDF and trying to save or save as.

Acrobat crashes itself when trying to save a PDF from an email attachment.

I am also having this problem on my Mac running Mojave Version 10.14.2. I am an editor/publisher, and rely heavily on Acrobat. Need help ASAP with this issue as it has slowed my workflow to an absolute crawl.

Hi

None of these steps helped me. I also uninstalled and reinstalled Acrobat, but no help. Acrobat freezes crashes immediately after I open a pdf.

I also installed Adobe Reader and it seems to work almost correctly. Only minor problems with copy pasting.

Do you have a software recorder which I could use to record what is happening when Acrobat crashes?

Hello, I also have a problem starting within the last two days or so where Acrobat DC crashes about 10-20 seconds after a PDF is opened.

I had this exact problem in early October and Vincent Dobhal from Adobe support (here? this forum?) was able to fix it by providing a PPKLite file to temporarily place in plug-ins?

But now it is back!  Please help, as Acrobat is completely unusable at present for me, and I use it often for work.
