Acrobat extremely laggy even when not opened

[Yeager117]

Even when I simply try to drag and copy and paste, it lags over those files and no other file does this.

My specs are high tier.

2080ti
i9900k
32gb ram.

What gives? I might have to find an alternative to this program for PDF's.

Can you include a screensot of your Task Manager > Processes tab when this happens?

Here's a gif. You will see in REALTIME when I am simply dragging over the files how much it lags and the spike up.

I'm really sorry to hear about the frustration you're experiencing with Adobe software on your high-tier system. It sounds incredibly frustrating, especially when you've invested in top-of-the-line hardware.

From what you've described, it seems like the issue might be specific to Adobe's software rather than your computer's specifications. Sometimes, certain software versions or configurations can cause unexpected performance issues, even on powerful machines like yours.

In the meantime, while you're looking for a solution, have you considered trying alternative PDF software? There are plenty of great options out there that might offer a smoother experience on your system. I've personally had good experiences with [Alternative PDF Software], which might be worth checking out.

I hope this helps, and I wish you luck in finding a solution that works for you!

Dear Siraj,

Thank you for your understanding and empathy regarding the issues I've been facing with Adobe software on my high-tier system. It's indeed disappointing when top-notch hardware doesn't perform as expected.

Hi there 
 
Hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that
 
Is this an issue with a particular PDF file or with all the PDFs? Please try with a different PDF file and check. If the file is stored on a shared network/drive please download it to your computer locally and then try again.
 
What is the version of the OS and the Acrobat DC you are using? To check the version go to Help > About Acrobat and make sure you have the recent version 24.02.20759 installed. Go to Help > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.
 
Also try to repair the installation from the help menu (Win Only) and see if that works.
 
Please try to reset the Acrobat preferences as described here https://adobe.ly/4aNiF9E
 
You may also try to create a new test user profile with full admin rights in Win or enable the root account in MAC and try using the application there and check.
 
 
If it still doesn't work, please remove the application using the Acrobat cleaner tool https://adobe.ly/4aK1Hcm, reboot the computer and reinstall the application using the direct link https://adobe.ly/3KmEHoY and see if that works.
