Acrobat Standard crashes upon opening

[Ken381626317ss3]

Using Adobe Standard on a Win10 22H2 Enterprise PC. Starting recently, Adobe opens to a blank white screen when opening either the application or a PDF directly, and crashes back out after ~2 seconds with nothing appearing on screen.

-I've uninstalled, rebooted, reinstalled both Adobe and then again with Adobe & Creative Cloud for good measure with no effect.

-I've uninstalled, ran Adobe's AcroCleaner, and reinstalled with no effect.

-Rebooted a half dozen times to no avail.

-Signed out of Creative Cloud to see if it was an account-related issue but it had no effect

-I've enabled the crash dump files, started Adobe to witness it crash, then checked the crashdumps folder and I see about a dozen 12mb files that were there already... but the two new ones from after I enabled the crashdump logging are ~325mb each.

I appreciate your assistance in advance.

Hi,

I'm also facing the same issue with version 22H2. Like you, I tried to resolve it on my own, but without success. I then contacted support, and they tried to assist me, but unfortunately, that didn't work either.

I've sent them my logs, and I'm hoping for a resolution soon.

It is very frustrating to be PAYING for this subscription and can't get any
answers or help whatsoever. I may have to find another PDF tool if this
doesn't work soon.

Same issue for one of my clients. Version 23H2 for me.

I did notice that it opens fine on another user profile on the same computer.

It sounds like you've tried several troubleshooting steps already. Here are a few additional suggestions:

1. **Update Graphics Drivers**: Sometimes, outdated or corrupted graphics drivers can cause issues with applications. Make sure your drivers are up-to-date.

2. **Check for Windows Updates**: Ensure your Windows 10 system is fully updated. Sometimes, system updates can resolve compatibility issues.

3. **Disable Protected Mode**: Try launching Adobe Acrobat in Safe Mode or disabling Protected Mode by going to `Edit > Preferences > Security (Enhanced)` and unchecking "Enable Protected Mode at startup."

4. **Review Crash Dumps**: Since you have large crash dump files, consider analyzing them or reaching out to Adobe Support with these files for further help.

If these steps don’t resolve the issue, contacting Adobe Support directly with your crash dump files might provide more specific assistance.
