Multiple Users unable to open more than 1 PDF.

[dylan_2290]

We have been experiencing issues with users reporting that when attempting to open a second PDF file their app hangs for at 20-30 seconds with no response and then suddenly opens the files.  The only fix we have found to work is to use acrocleaner and then reinstall from Creative Cloud.  Not all of our users have access to creative cloud as many of them just use Acrobat Reader.  Steps we have taken include

Full Removal with Acrocleaner and Revo and reinstallation

Registry edits to disabled Enhanced Security at Startup

Running program in compatibility mode

Switching to old view

All devices experiencing issues are currently on 2024.5.20320 update

Repaired installation

Disabled page cache

Cleared local app data and let Adobe recreate folder

We believe this is related to the current update as this was reported to be happening about a week ago, please advise.
