I updated the software and reinstalled the software. I also ran a repair on the software and unchecked protected mode and enhanced security but nothing worked. 

 

 

this could be a corrupted file on the drive/cloud but i tested it out on my end and it works fine. For the user it doesnt.

is there other troubleshooting methods that can solve the problem ?

Hi @Rick27474169bh5i 

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 Acrobat DC you are using? To check the version go to Help > About Acrobat and make sure you have the recent version 20.05.30539 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://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 or enable the root account in MAC and try using the application there and check.

 

Let us know how it goes
