I've used Adobe Pro for years, and this is only on my new windows 10 gaming computer. It won't let me Highlight/Copy/Paste anymore....instead it puts verticle blue frames on the page and I can no longer copy anything.
I can't seem to find a setting for this?

The document is composed out of images. You have to first run Text Recognition on it, and if the results are successful then you would be able to select and copy the text.
