Adobe Reader won't launch. I don't know if it's related to a recent Microsoft update, but I've deleted and then downloaded and reinstalled the program and it shows up in my installed apps page, but still it won't open pdf documents that I have on my laptop. This is a big problem because I receive bills from service providers in pdf form. Help, please!

I discovered that a Microsoft update had obliterated Adobe. It even obliterated my Office programs (not for the first time).  Fortunately, I've now been able to reinstall Acrobat Reader. Thank you.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

Thank you. I think you've already moved my post, which I see someone has already upvoted as relevant to them. Hoping someone can provide a fix soon.
