I have a new PC running Windows 10. The vertical scroll bar in advanced search is virtually invisbible (white baron white backround) . If I hover my mouse overo searched-for terms the visibility improves (gets greyer) but the invisibility comes back again as I do more scrolling.

This has never happened before over the years. My other machine (laptop) with W10 does not have this problem.

Can you help

is this happening with just the Acrobat application or does it happen with MS Office applications too?

Only in Reader. It's happened many years back on another PC and earlier Windows version, so I think it's not just some wierd oddity/glitch

Hi,

I forgot to ask, what version of Acrobat Reader do you have?

This seems to be a known problem in Acrobat Reader for large documents that have more than 82 comments in them.

Is this problem manifesting with just one PDF document or with every PDF?

Are you using the Advanced Search to work with comments and annotations in that PDF?

In the Adobe Help support the problem is identified but there's no known workaroundassociated with it at this time.

I suggest to use this link as a reference:

And check if switching viewing preferences helps.
