I hope you didn't purchase it now, as it's a very old, outdated and not-supported product. If you can return it, do.

It is not compatible with Windows 10 (which doesn't mean it won't work...), and not eligible for any upgrades.

You're better off spending your money on a version that will work, like Acrobat DC.

Thank you.  I bought it new then and was inadvertently tucked away. Trying to find out if there is some use to it since it is almost 12 years old i think...Again thank you.

Two ideas that MAY work to install and/or run old programs in Windows 10
-RIGHT click the program icon or EXE and select a compatibility mode in the pop up option window
-and/or select Run as Administrator to assign FULL Windows permissions
