Adobe Acrobat DC Will Not Open/Launch

Starting yesterday (8.23.2021), I have been experiencing an issue where I am unable to run Adobe Acrobat DC. When I select the program shortcut or try and open a PDF, nothing happens. I have tried running compatibility tests, no change.
 
My temporary solution has been to uninstall and then reinstall the program, but it only works for a few hours before I am no longer able to open or run the program. I am running the latest versions of Windows 10 and Adobe Acrobat DC.
 
Seeking any and all insight.

Hello,

 

Thank you for reaching out and sorry for the trouble.

 

If the steps suggested above doesn' t resolve the issue, please confirm if you are installing Acrobat Pro DC from Creative Cloud desktop application.

Did you make any recent changes on the machine after which the issue started?

 

Let us know how it goes.

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi

Go to Win10 Start Menu.

Right-click on red Adobe Acrobat DC icon.

Select More > Run as Administrator.
