Acrobat keeps closing with error 0xc0000409

New Here ,
Oct 18, 2022 Oct 18, 2022

Since a few days one of our colleagues has troubles with Acrobat Pro. Everytime he opens the program or a PDF file, it loads for a couple of seconds and than completely closes. If I check the event viewer, we can see this log:

I tried removing everything Adobe related with Revo Uninstaller, did a CCleaner and reinstalled everything, but the problem remains. Also did a sfc /scannow, problem still remains. I also created the below regkey to disable the option "Enable Protected Mode at startup", but also with this the problem remains...

  • Keypath: HKLM\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Policies\Adobe\Adobe\Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown
  • Value name: iProtectedView
  • Value type: REG_DWORD
  • Value data: 0

 

I have no more clue what we can try, so I hope someone else has some ideas 🙂 

Thank you!
