Can't see text while typing in fillable form

Question

Using Acrobat Pro DC.  Purchased a new laptop with Windows 10 Pro.  When trying to fill out a fillable form I cannot see the text as I am typing.  When I move to the next blank the text I typed in the prior blank is there, it prints and I can save it.  But I cannot see the text in the blank as I am typing.  Same thing with deleting the text.  I have to leave the box to see what I've typed and then go back to it to edit if needed.
