I have Adobe Acrobat Reader version 2023.001.20174|64-bit with AGM version 7.000.00004|64-bit and Core Version 23.256|64-bit

 

Wheneve I open a PDF and try to SAVE AS (so I can save it into a specific directory vice the download ) the Reader crashes.  This happens with downloaded PDFs or copied/moved PDFs. I've tried uninstall/re-install and nothing prevents this.

Please help.

TIA
Mark

Hi @StriperSeeker 

 

Hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that.

 

As you are on the latest version and already tried removing and reinstalling the application with no luck.

 

Please 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://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/how-to-reset-acrobat-preference-settings-to-default/td-p/4792082

You may also try to create a new test user profile with full admin rights in Win and try using the application there and check.
 If it still doesn't work, please collect the crash logs as described here https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/collect-logs-crash-freeze.html and share them via any cloud storage. Just upload the log file to the cloud, generate the link, and share that link with us for further investigation.

 

Regards
Amal

I don't know what this means: "please try using the application in the new
user profile or enable the root account in MAC"
Do you mean make a new user profile and try Adobe in it?
And do you mean enable root in UAC, MAC? I'm on a Windows 10 OS machine.
Admin is enabled in UAC.
Please advise.

Hi there

 

Thanks for the clarification, as you are on Win 10 OS, please try using the application in the new user profile and see if that works.

 

If it still doesn't work, please try to get in touch with your IT admin and try removing and reinstalling the application as described above and check.
