Hello,

I am on Windows 11 version 10.0.22000 Build 22000. My Adobe Acrobat version is 2022.002.20212.

Whenever I click on or group select a/ a number of pdf file(s), I got the "An internal error occured" error message. I therefore cannot perform actions like copy or cut files. It sometimes crashes the File Explorer as well.

I have tried the solution in another post, but nothing worked. I have also tried uninstalling and re-installing the program using AdobeAcroCleaner_DC2021 but the problem persisted.

Please help! Thank you.

As per ThomHayes statement request below, when are Adobe going to rectifiy the issue with their product. I note there is no response to this...
I have wasted threedays of my time dealing with a rubbish product.
Is Adobe going to reimburse me for the delays they have caused me?
The fixes spattered around this forum have not worked for me and many others who are unable to use the products we are paying for.
I work for a large corporation and they have repaired and reinstalled to product numerous times over the past month.
I have stated this in previous posts, Acrobat is not worth the money we are paying for it.

Adobe have No Excuse, get a developer to respond and tell us when they are going to fix their product?

Hi @IntSol

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble.

This issue has been reported to our engineering team and is being worked upon. Would you mind sharing the Procmon logs (Win Only) https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/Labs/acromonitor.html and the dump file of Acrobat https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/collect-logs-crash-freeze.html when the issue reproduces and share them via any cloud storage. Just upload the logs to the cloud and create the link and share that link with us for further drill down.

Waiting for your reply

Regards

Amal

@adobe please can we have an update on this? The solutions mentioned aren't working for everyone. It's been months. PDFs are a staple part of my day to day, and they're constantly crashing my machine, not saving, not loading, not previewing, crashing programs etc etc. Whats going on, when will this be fixed?

I have tried to follow the fix below, but in my case there are no such occurrences of unknown accounts. But the exact error described here persists. I am also a subscriber and i find this very problematic. I use Acrobat for work and it is now impossible to do anything with it. Any advice? Thank you very much!

@markelrayesfound a solution on another thread.

"I FOUND A SOLUTION.

I had to go C:\Users\[me]\AppData\Local and right click the Adobe folder, click properties and go to security tab. I had a bunch of left-over "Account Unknown" listed besides my three main ones (System, [me], Admin). I deleted all the account unknowns."

If you can't delete all the Account Unknown files through "EDIT", select "ADVANCED" and remove them.

Spread the word. I didn't even have to reboot after doing this and my error disappeared.

I have the same issue. Everytime I select a pdf file, system keeps loading and it takes unreasonably long to process. Then "An internal error occurred" pops up! I'm also not able to select multiple files to drag/copy/paste. Everything freeze! This is stupid, we paid for enterprise subscription and it slows down my work! Adobe, can you please fix this, or are you going to compensate us back for the chargeable hours from my client?

I've seen similar issues with Adobe Acrobat as soon as the preview pane is enabled in your documents in forum posts going back to 2017. I take it that they've just tried to patch the bug and it just comes up in different ways, but because it doesn't happen to most users, it doesn't get a proper fix.

저도 같은 문제를 겪고있어요.

파일을 선택하면 "An internal error occurred" 오류 메세지가 나타납니다.

파일은 잘 열리지만, 계속 오류 메세지가 떠서 불편합니다.

몇 번이나 재설치를 해도 똑같은 문제가 발생합니다.

I'm having the same problem.
When you select a file, an "An internal error occurred" error message appears.
The file opens well, but I feel uncomfortable because I keep getting error messages.
The same problem occurs after several reinstallations.
