Can't Copy to Paste with shortcut keys - Windows 11 Acrobat Pro

Hello,

 

I'm suffering a very specific issue with Acrobat Pro that I haven't been able to find anyone else describing. My job requires I fill in a pdf document for the week using their template. The document is a form with many text fields that we need to fill in or select options on it. For whatever reason the COPY shortcut key stopped working a while back. Using CTRL+C has absolutely no effect. I can select text and manually right click and copy, or use the edit option, and the CTRL+V will paste the information without any problems. But CTRL+C and CTRL+X absolutely fail to perform their regular actions. It also appears like CTRL+X deletes whatever is selected. I also have a MacBook and every shortcut key works 100%. I have no idea why on Windows it turns off. Yes, it turns off. I have uninstalled Acrobat and reinstalled it. To find the shortcut key works right after reinstalling Acrobat. Only to have the shortcut key stop working right after I close Acrobat. Would love to know why Windows is doing this, or Acrobat does it and why. I've used the repair option available within Acrobat and it does not work to correct the issue. Worse yet, the shortcut keys function 100% everywhere else except in Acrobat. The shortcut keys work 100% in every other Adobe Software program as well.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
