I have reinstalled Adobe Acrobat DC 2020, which I purchased in 2020. The Installation seems to work, but I cannot open the program. 

I have uninstalled and reinstalled three times. What am I doing wrong?

Hi @penelope_7971,

 

Hope you are doing well. Sorry for your experience with launching Acrobat.

 

Do you see any window pop-up when trying to launch the app, or any error message? 

Also, are you launching the app directly or by double-clicking a PDF file?

 

Would you mind opening the app as an Administrator (Windows only)? To do so, right-click the app icon > run as administrator.

 

Also, please try removing the older license files and try again. To know more on the steps, please click here: https://adobe.ly/3H4V4bt.

 

Let us know how it goes.


Regards,
Souvik.
