Question

Adobe Acrobat crashing when using redacting tool

One of our users is having issues with the redacting tool in Adobe Acrobat. They are able to select the tool but once click on some text to redact, Adobe will stop responding and then crash.

 

We have already re-installed Adobe Acrobat. I found a workaround where if we sign the user out and back into Adobe Acrobat, the redaction tool works fine and Adobe does not crash. However, Adobe is closed and re-opened, the issue will return until we perform the mentioned workaround. We also have a Windows remote server environment and the same issue occurs there.
