Hi All,

 

The issue has been addressed in the latest update. 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

Thank you for reaching out and reporting this.

 

As the application crashes when using the Fill & Sign tool, try the troubleshooting steps suggested here: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-dc-crashes-on-windows-os.html

 

If the issue still occurs, please share the following details for further investigation:

- Does the crash occur with a specific file or any file you use?

- Share the Acrobat or Reader version currently in use.

- Share the OS version on the machine.

- Share the crash logs using the steps suggested here: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/collect-logs-crash-freeze.html.

 

Let us know if you need any help.

 

Thanks,

After doing a bunch of things, signing out of Acrobat and back in seemed to do the trick. If that doesnt do it for you, please let me know and I'll let you know everything else I did first

Yes, to sign out go to Menu, Help, and Sign Out. I did that and the program stopped crashing on the Fill & Sign.

OH MY GOD I LOVE YOU - This was doing my head in. Signing out and back in again worked.

I am having the same issue. Have checked the current version is accurate, run the diagnostics tool and repaired the installation. Need a fix asap, the web version is a much slower process and I have far too many documents to sign / send out for signature.

Have uninstalled, reinstalled, followed every diagnostic tool and submitted every report with every step - hurry up and fix this please!!!!
