Does anyone know of a solution to get it running again?

I've already uninstalled and reinstalled it twice.  I've also logged out and back into my CC account.  Neither fixed the behavior.

Hi @Sara258273793kjn 

 

We are sorry to hear that.

 

Would you mind sharing the version of the application and the OS you are using? To check the version go to Help > About Acrobat and make sure you have the recent version 22.2.20191. Go to Help > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.

Also, a small video recording of the steps you are doing and the issue you are experiencing would be very helpful.
