I have a big issue that invalidates my signature in pdf files.

I'm using a token certificate to sign the documents.

After saving and signing the document it gives me the message "Signed and all signatures are valid"  - photo 1 (sorry for the low quality) :test1.jpg

The issue is that after i close and reopen the same document it invalidates my signature - photo 2 :

The error message is: " There have been changes made to this document that invalidate the signature"

I have the same issue with all type of documents that i use.

The issue started to happen recently, few days ago.

Also it gives me the same error for documents i've signed months ago, and no issues back than.

Please help, my work is useless without valid signature.
