Print to PDF from Word requires PC restart

Question

Using Windows 11, Word 2021, and Adobe Acrobat Pro 10.  When I print to PDF from Word, it works once.  When I try to do it again, Word tells me that Adobe Acrobat is not installed.  So, I restart the PC, and printing to PDF from Word works one time again.  I need to restart the PC each time I want to print to PDF from Word.  Any ideas on how to fix this?

Hi @earlwhitney

Sorry for the delay in response to your issue.

Adobe Acrobat 10 is quite an older version of the Acrobat series. There slightly a chance that it has compatibility issues with the latest version of Windows and MS Office, as it's not been tested on them.

Seems MS Word is not able to sync or recognize the Acrobat plugin installed on the computer.

Try repairing the installation of Acrobat. Open Acrobat>help>Repair installation and check again.
