Question

New Acrobat freezing constantly.

WHenever asked to do a memory intensive task, Acrobat DC Pro crashes/freezes. This time it was listing comments in a pdf (their number was over 3K marks/comments). 

 

I like the interface but Acrobat has become dangerously unstable. The classic version it replaced is no better these days.
