    I'm unable to open a PDF with Acrobat Pro on a fresh Win 11 Pro installation with Smart App Control enabled. Whenever I try to open a PDF, Acrobat Pro throws an error explaining part of the App has been blocked by Smart App Control. Windows explains, "It means that an app, service, or piece of hardware that you’re using has tried to load a driver, app, or other file that isn’t properly signed."

     

    Adobe, please check into this and resolve the signing issues. Thanks.

      Ditto above. Using Acrobat Pro on a fresh Win 11 Pro installation (new computer). Adobe worked fine the first two days (maybe in evaluation mode?), now Smart App is auto-enabled, Acrobat Pro functionality limited, and Notifications says Smart App is blocking these parts:

      reflow.api

      icucnv71.dll

      icuuc71.dll

      webpdf.api

      weblink.api
