Acrobat 8 is not compatible with Windows 10, so such problems are to be expected.

You can try running it in Compatibility Mode, but that's about it.

Adobe 8.1 works fine on Windows 10. You can install it, have access to all the functions but only for 30 days. The reason you can't activate it is because the greedy software company thinks they can force you to pay monthly to use their products. I've got news for them, I'll find something else.
