Hi,
Every time I open a PDF document I see a blue background box in the upper right corner with white lettering, "Reopen Closed PDFs Your last Acrobat session ended abruptly. Click Restore to open the PDFs from the last session."
I don't know if I am doing something wrong, or this is just another Adobe pop up that comes up on its own. So, I have to go over and click on the "X" in the upper right inside the box to get it to disappear.
Thanking you in advance for your help.

I too experience this annoying pop-up.
Why can't Adobe address this in an update ?
The application sould respond to my request, and stop running so many background processes.

Try this in Acrobat Pro DC:
Edit > Preferences > Documents
Set "Documents in recently used list:" to 0 (zero)

None of these answers on the whole thread stopped the 'Reopen closed PDFs' pop-up.

Hi,
Let's try something.
Can you share a dump file, or check the event manager (if you use windows).
I don't get this problem, so I'm starting to think if this has to do with specific type of files.
Also, you mentioned that none of the solutions offered in the thread worked. That means that the registry editing suggestions are not lockable.
We're gonna have to look harder on that.

Is this still happening with the latest Acrobat version update?
Iam starting to wonder if we need to mess around with registry settings.

This helped rid the message in Acrobat DC 2020. Credit to Amal.
1) Close Acrobat/Reader and then Open regedit.exe in Run command.
2) Navigate to the Path: HKLM\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\ and create a key with name "FeatureState"
3) In FeatureState Create a new item with Type: "REG_DWORD" Name: "SessionRestorePromptAbnormalExit" and Value: 0
4) Relaunch Acrobat/Reader and observe that the Blue popup won't be coming again for you.
