can't open acrobat

[mokahya]

I can't use any acrobat feature I can't even open it. When I open it it shows a gray box with a blue circle that keeps spinning. I waited for a long time for it to disappear, but it remains the same.
What is the solution to this problem.

Try unistalling using this tool - AcroCleaner — Acrobat Desktop Tools and Utilities (adobe.com) 

After uninstalling try reinstalling - you can use this link How to download and install Acrobat DC subscription on your computer (adobe.com) or by installing the CC desktop app -How to download the Creative Cloud desktop app (adobe.com)

I did it like you said and it still same. I am using CC in my PC. A video about the problem

Maybe you can try contacting Adobe through their chat. Contact Customer Care (adobe.com)

Hi @mokahya 

++ Adding to the discussion

Would you mind collecting the Adobe CC logs https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/cc-log-collector.html , Procmon logs (Win Only) https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/Labs/acromonitor.html  and Adobe freeze logs https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/collect-logs-crash-freeze.html  and share them via any cloud storage. Just upload the log file to the cloud, generate the link, and share that link with us for further investigation.

@Amal. thank you.
By the way, the problem is still the same and I still can't use Acrobat. Acrobat is one of the most used apps by me for my university life.

Can you use it online?  https://acrobat.adobe.com/ 

[mokahya]

@mariahweyne I think yes the same window didn't appear in the online version.

Check to see what happens when you click on Open Desktop version from the online version.

Hi there

The new version of Acrobat (23.03.20269) is now available to address this issue. Please update the application from the help menu > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.

You may also download the patch manually from the link https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/ReleaseNotesDC/index.html and see if that works.
