Adobe Acrobat Reader DC

[dumbass2]

Program just won't open at all and the second time I have had this happen.  I ran the "change" and repair function but no cigar. My solution before was to download and use "Foxit reader" which works just fine.  After about 3 months I reinstalle your program and it worked for awhile then today (4-18-2020) exact same thing happened.  I don't really care if you can fix it or not as the other works just fine but I thought someone might want to know.  I do get an error "Acrobat failed to connect to a DDE server"
