Hello everyone,

I'm having an issue with Adobe Acrobat on my Windows 11 laptop, and I'm hoping someone here can help.

Initially, Acrobat started freezing and became unresponsive. I tried a clean installation, but now the application won't launch at all. When I click the Acrobat icon, it appears in the Taskbar, but the main application window never opens. I can only close the process by using Task Manager.

Laptop Model: Dell Inspiron 5502
OS: Windows 11
Acrobat Version: 25.1

What I Have Already Tried:

Ending the application via Task Manager and restarting the laptop.

Completely uninstalling using the Adobe Acrobat Cleaner Tool.   

Restarting the laptop after the uninstallation.   

Reinstalling the latest version downloaded directly from the Adobe website.   

Checking the Task Manager for any stuck "Acrobat" or "Adobe" background processes.   

Unfortunately, none of these steps have solved the problem. The application is still stuck in the Taskbar and refuses to open.

Does anyone have any further ideas on what I could try or what might be causing this? Are there any known compatibility issues with Windows 11?

Thank you in advance for your help.
