ACROBAT READER - HELP NEEDED

New Here ,

Hi All,

 

I am looking for help, I have been forwarded some documents which are in .pdf file.  I have tried opening them as usual, but find that they no longer open.  I am presented with the option to purchase the full Acrobat Suite on a monthly basis.  I seldom use Acrobat Reader as it is only when sent documents that require my attention and I cannot justify the monthly fee on the basis that I might only need to open a .pdf document about 5 or 6 times a year.  Any help / guidance would be greatly appreciated

Hi,

Same problem here : when I open a file, it just says to buy the license or close Adobe. 
This is really annoying.

Are you able to open Reader on its own? Did you use to have Acrobat before (even as a trial version)?

For me :
Even when I open, it just asks me to get the license/free trial/or close.
When I close the little window, it just closes Reader.

I did get free trial 2 years ago or so.

Tremendous, thanks for all the help. Acrobat is now loaded and I can read

Thank you very much for all your assistance
I hope it works for the other parties that are having the same issue as me

I can't even tell you the version of Acrobat reader I am using, because there is nothing I can do but close it when it opens, because of the window poping out asking me to get the license (this is in french, but I get it's understandable).

I am on windows 10 22H2.

I did get the free trial like 2 years ago.
I open Adob everyday just to open print (doesn't worth 25€ monthly to me).

Hi,

I am using the latest version of Mac OS Sonoma

I am unable to open Adobe Acrobat so have no idea what version this might
be.
I have a subscription payment for the Adobe Photoshop software and its
component elements

Hi,

I have had this sent to me and have copied it to here in the hope that it
just might help you.

I am using an Apple iMac and I know that you are on Windows so it may not
work for you
but it is worth a try.

It has worked for me
