Hi Cadiz,

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble. Would you mind elaborating a bit more about the issue you are experiencing.

What is the workflow/steps you are doing that lead you to this error message?

What is the version of  the Adobe Acrobat DC you are using? To check the version go to Help About Acrobat and make sure you have the recent version 21.11.20039 installed. Go to Help > Check for Updates and reboot the computer once.

Please try to reset the Acrobat preferences as described https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/how-to-reset-acrobat-preference-settings-to-defau... 

You may also try to create a new test user profile with full admin rights or enable the root account in MAC and try using the application there and check.

Regards

Amal

Same issue everytime I try to combine documents in to one file at the first attempt always get the error fine at second attempt I am seriously considering whether I am going to renew my subscription as there are now to many errors, crashes and glitches never had these issues on the 32bit but if I swap back file explorer cannot preview files anymore it is starting to cost me more money than the annual subcription in wasted time get iot sorted or it is going. Yes I am running the latest version with all updates and likewise on my Windows 11 Pro

Hi @Diverkev 

We are sorry to hear that.

Is this an issue with a particular PDF file or with all the PDFs? Please try with a different set of PDF files and see if that works.

Would you mind sharing a small video recording of the steps you are doing and the issue you are getting for a better understanding?

Also, ensure you have the application updated to the recent version 22.3.20314. Go to Help > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.

Hi @Diverkev 

What is the version of the Acrobat DC you are using? To check the version go to Help > About Acrobat and make sure you have the recent version 22.3.20314 or 22.3.20322 (Win Only) installed. Go to Help > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.

Also try to repair the installation from the help menu (Win Only) and see if that works.

Please try to reset the Acrobat preferences as described here https://community.adobe.com/t5/acrobat-discussions/how-to-reset-acrobat-preference-settings-to-defau...

I have 2 computers with the same issue.   resetting the preference has no effect as a solution.

they have latest updates and we tried repair installation and still happens.

Hi there

Please try to create a new test user profile with full admin rights in Win or enable the root account in MAC and try using the application there and see if that works for you.

Same issue for me as well. Already did a clean reinstallation of Adobe on the machine. Works for a few days and back to its old ways. Haven't tried the admin profile as its not optimal for our envirmonet eventually the user needs to work via there profile. Please suggest a solution.

You will not get a fix on here community support are enthusiastic amateurs I rang customer service they sorted it in about 3 minutes deleting offending files in the bios

I am running the latest updated version of Acrobat (Albeit I reverted to the old screen settings)

I have exactly the same problem whenever I try to combine files for the first time.

So, if I understand correctly, I will have to call Adobe customer service for them to sort out?

I am also having this problem but found a workaround should anyone need it...

Open Adobe Acrobat and click File>Create>Combine Files into a single PDF.

Then choose destination folder and highlight all files.

This works for me, obviously a bit more tedious than just right clicking and combining.

[Plan38697747a39n]

Must be a bug in Acrobat as if you close the app, then retry combining (while Acrobat is closed) it will usually work no problem....

[paulf95489849]

I find it incredible that a Company like Adobe can't sort this recurring
problem with so many users experiencing it.

I consistently get this message and have to try a 2nd time to combine my files. I am doing this in File Explorer in Windows.

How do I fix this?  It's really a problem.

[JR Boulay · Accepted solution]

I believe this is certainly the oldest bug in Acrobat, the first time I saw this alert was in 2001 with Acrobat 5.

this problem has shown up again this morning for me! I don't have the time to continue to mess around with this!!

I was having this problem with certain PDFs and nothing seemed to fix it. Running Mac OS Sequoia. I removed my Acrobat extension in Chrome and that seems to have fixed it.
