Hi All,

 

The issue has been addressed in the latest update released today. Try updating the application to the latest version available. In Acrobat, go to Help > Check for updates. Check if that resolves the issue.

 

You may also refer to the information on the latest update on the following help page: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/release-note/release-notes-acrobat-reader.html. 

 

Let us know how it goes.

 

Thanks,

@Meenakshi Negi Just an update that this morning the application is working fine! I did not test the work around provided and am unable to confirm if an update was pushed.

@Bjoern38702943obut Anything on your end?

Hey! I'm having the same exact issue on my end and have been unable to fix it. I tried repairing, uninstalling/re-installing, modifying security preferences and reverting to the "Old" gui interface but nothing resolved it for me. I'm hoping there's an update coming soon that will fix this!
