I have Adobe Reader installed on servers accessed by many users.  Intermittently when they open a PDF the whole window will go all white, all black, or crash ~ 10 seconds after opening.  The program is installed on Windows Server 2016, and has already been uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times across 9 servers that are having the issue on and off.  The error from windows event viewer is below:

Hi there

 

Hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that. As described the application is crashing Intermittently when opening the PDF file.

 

Is this an issue with a particular PDF file or with all the PDFs that you try to open? Please try with a different PDF file and check.

 

Also, please go through the help page https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-dc-crashes-on-windows-os.html and see if that works for you.

 

Regards

Amal

Hello Amal,

 

The behavior does not happen every time.  As the PDFs are being accessed through a virtual environment, many users are accessing the same servers.  I’ve had 6-7 users reporting the issue intermittently across 9 servers.  What we are seeing is that PDFs open fine most of the time, but once Adobe crashes, blacks out or whites out, then the user gets the same behavior until resetting their profile.  I have already rebooted all of the servers, uninstalled Adobe, reinstalled Adobe and repaired it but the issue continues to return.  On the server I can see the error below.

 

Faulting application name: AcroRd32.exe, version: 22.1.20117.0, time stamp: 0x624e8042

I did find that help page during my research, the only step I wasn’t able to try was the acrodist as no such application was available.

Hello Amal,

 

I found that the application was crashing because there is apparently a requirment for protected mode to be disabled.  After enabling the GPO, the crashing has stopped however the blacking out on PDFS (multiple users and multiple PDFs) is still happening.  I have upgraded to the latest version of Adobe and am testing both 64 bit as well as 32 bit.

Would you mind sharing a small video recording of the same for a better understanding?
