Question

Flickering issue in Adobe acrobat when scrolling last version

Hello,

I'm having an issue related to the use of Adobe. I contacted Adobe through their chat, but the assistant wasn’t very helpful.

The problem is that when I scroll through different pages of my PDF, Adobe starts flickering all over the place.

I’ve tried reinstalling and repairing the software.
I’ve disabled page caching.
I’ve also turned off hardware acceleration (GPU acceleration).

I’m running out of ideas — nothing seems to work, and my fields keep flickering nonstop.

If anyone has a solution to this issue, I’d really appreciate your help.
I’m using Windows 11, and my Adobe software version is 25.001.20813.0.

Same flickering issue. After update to 25.001.208xx and language change inside Adobe Reader, PDF started to flicker like crazy. Had to uninstall Adobe and revert to 25.001.20756.

@Terratron sometimes waiting a few weeks before updating to the latest and greatest updates might be a good thing for buggy work-arounds?!

Lately the program updates itself every month, hence you get the bugs anyway...

 

Looks like Adobe is aware of this flickering issue. Fresh install updated the Reader only to version 25.001.20756.

@florian_7716 Since you've exhausted the Acrobat internal settings, the problem likely lies in the interaction between Acrobat, your graphics driver, and Windows 11's display settings.
