Ctrl+Wheel and Marquee Zoom don't work, and even select text with Hand Tool

[Mino5FB9]

Hello everybody, I'm having a lot of problems that I don't understand.

I have just installed Acrobat Reader DC in 2 PCs, Win10, and I get the same problems on both.

I don't get the same problems with any other software.
I have other PCs with Windows 10, same version of Acrobat, which work fine.

1) if I press Ctrl and I rotate the wheel, Acrobat simply scrolls. "Make Hand tool use mouse-wheel zooming" actually zooms when I use the Hand tool and I rotate the wheel, but ...

2) ... the Hand tool doesn't move the page

3) if I select Marquee Zoom it doesn't let me select any region, it zooms immediately as I click the mouse button

4) I set "Make Hand tool select text & images" but it doesn't select anything

5) the Selection tool doesn't work: it doesn't select anything as well

I have uninstalled Acrobat and installed again with no success.

I have replaced the mouse and the keyboard with no success.

Thanks for your help, best regards.

solved: I updated to the last version, and now it's working properly. It's strange because I downloaded Acrobat a few days ago, anyway it works.

Best regards

Hmmm... If you change the magnification of the view, does it change the way it's behaving?  If you zoom way in, can you move around a single page using the hand tool?

My best,

Dave

hello Dave, today everything worked fine for some minutes, but now I have the same problems.

I think the fault is in catching the command from the keyboard and from the mouse. It's a problem I have only inside Acrobat, because even Note Pad works properly.

If I zoom in/out by pressing +/- it works, but if I try to zoom in/out by pressing Ctrl and rotating the mouse wheel it doesn't.

The hand tool doesn't work: I can't move anything.

I repaired Acrobat 2 times without any success.

Thank you

the problem was due to the HP Display Assistant. I have just quitted it, and after some days Acrobat not working properly, now it works.

Best regards

I had a similar issue - mouse commands for Ctrl+Scroll Wheell to zoom, highlighting, dragging the size of comment text boxes were not working, but I could zoom using Ctrl + or Ctrl - on the keyboard, and I could highlight using Ctrl + Shift  on the keyboard. As soon as I ended task for HP Display Assistant in the task manager, Adobe started working again. Does anyone have any ideas of why this is happening?
