When I open certain forms in Acrobat I get the following error.

"This pdf form requires a newer version of Adobe Acrobat..."

When I close the error, the form opens.

I have verified that my Acrobat is up to date. How do I resolve this error issue?

It's a lousy JavaScript running at opening that closes the document.
Disable JavaScript in Preferences and you should be able to open it.

Also, what is the specific version of your Adobe Acrobat - not "up to date" but a string of numbers like 2016.123.21332 or 11.4.32?

I'm running Adobe Acrobat Reader version 2023.001.20143 | 64-bit. Here's a screenshot of the error I get with a few PDFs. Is there a way to not get this error?

It's certainly strange, since you are indeed already running the latest version available today. Where are these files from? Are you able to share one?
