I have 32 GB of ram, yet I can't even scroll through 2 page documents without Adobe Acrobat Pro lagging and crashing... WTF!

 

I've spent countless hours researching and troubleshooting. Nothing works. It's infuriating. Please help.

My workaround for this issue is to open PDF's now in Google Chrome. All the tools are available. PDF's now open at high speeds and I can read and highlight with no problems. I rarely use the desktop app now.   You may need to download the Adobe extension for it to work in your internet browsing window.

Unfortunately, I have nothing helpful to add, but I do have the identical issue far too often.  The amount of time I've wasted troubleshooting this issue is ridiculous.  It happens intermittently on all three of the workstations I use, including one with 64 GB of DDR5 RAM. One of the workstations uses a completely different Adobe license and a separate network. This IS an Adobe issue.  I love many of the features of Adobe Pro. Still, these issues are intolerable and have finally caused me to consider not renewing our 11 expensive licenses and going with another option.

This does not involve a work computer.
