Question

New Outlook opening pdf attachment generates application error

When using the "new" Outlook (1.2025.312.200 (Production) - Client Version: 20250307002.16)
to open a pdf (preview works fine) with Adobe Acrobat DC (64-bit 25.001.20432), it generates this error, that when OK is clicked, proceeds to open the pdf for subsequent use without further issues.

Attempted fixes: Repaired Adobe Acrobat. Changed this setting - Preferences-> Security (Enhanced)-> unchecked the checkbox "Run in AppContainer". No luck.

 

The same email with pdf attachment works without issue when using Outlook Classic. All other pdfs stored in folders locally, in the cloud, or on network drives open without issue. Seems purely an issue with the new Outlook and Adobe Acrobat. 

 

Any other suggested things to try, or any news on a fix coming in an update to either Acrobat or Outlook?

I worked with an agent from Adobe and they had me put in some REG keys that fixed the issue for me. I turned it into a GPO push so here's the commands I used for PowerShell

 

REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown" /v "bPromoteRSBezelFeatureLockdown" /t REG_DWORD /d "1" /f

REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown" /v "bEnableNextActionPaneFeature" /t REG_DWORD /d "0" /f

REG ADD "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown" /v "bLiveDocsExperiment" /t REG_DWORD /d "0" /f

That being said, it would be really helpful if you could help us gather logs from your machine: https://adobe.ly/4l1gBRA. Please make sure Procmon is selected. You can upload logs using this tool and share your Unique log ID with us.
