Just reformatted mioy computer and upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate, now I cannot open PDF's - the reader closes immediately - doesn't open the PDF at all. I can't even open Reader XI by itself. I tried uninstalling and rolling back to Reader 10... same result. Uninstalled that and installed verion 9.0. Same result. I have not installed XI again, but still cannot open PDF's. I bought and intalled Office 2013 when I restaged. Nothing else is on my computer yet except Avast antivirus and firewall, skype, IE 10, and google chrome. Any ideas??

You can try using Windows Explorer to navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement

Well, Reader XI itself is outdated too, obsolete for 7 years now. If you are having problems with it, get up to date! And if you're not having problems with Reader XI, please post a new question.

I'm having the same problem...I open a pdf and it closes 2 seconds later. I have reinstalled 2x and I cant hit repair install because it closes too fast.
