Update for the solution, there is another way to solve the issue without rolling back to old version
After opening Adobe Reader
Press "Menu"->"Disable new Acrobat Reader"
After Adobe Reader restarted, the issue should be solved.
But this setting does not apply to all users in the same PC, you need to set it if another new user login to the same PC.

This seems to be a general problem caused by the latest update to Adobe Reader. If closed again within a few seonds of opening a file, Adobe Reader crashes and gives the Windows stopped responding message. If you wait a few seconds longer before closing the file, it closes normally without crashing. Evidently something in the opening process does not like being terminated. Having looked at similar issues in previous years, I disabled opening cloud files on both pen and save, so that is not the issue. The file concerned is on the local disk. To help you locate the faulting module, I dumped the Windows event error information:

Just tested a bit for this issue. It seems the issue is related to the box "Free 7-day trial" at bottom-left corner.
If opening a pdf and close it before the box "Free 7-day trial" comes out. It will crash with the error message.
But if you wait long enough for the box to prompt out, there should be no error message when closing it.

I have tried changing group policy setting for Adobe Reader in regedit. Although the box "Free 7-day trial" is not up anymore, but it seems that the box is still loaded in backend.
Which means if I don't wait enough time for it to load in backend. It will still crash.

I have also tried uninstalling Adobe reader and install 24.001.20604, no such issue in this version.
Thus, installing old version and stop updating until Adobe fixed the issue can be a temporary solution.
You can stop auto update by adding 
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown" /v bUpdater /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f
Note:
My version is 64 bit, if you are using 32 bit Adobe Reader, please try the following instead
reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown" /v bUpdater /t REG_DWORD /d 00000000 /f

In the registry this is the following setting:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\DC\AVGeneral]
"bEnableAV2"=dword:00000000

Value 00000000 = old UI

Value 00000001 = new UI

 

You can roll this out to all affected users on the RDS servers through Group Policy Preferences.

Is there an update to this? We have deployed Adobe Reader auto update through Intune and the latest update causes app crashing unexpectedly. We need a automated permanent fix to 200+ machines currently experiencing the issue. We cant connect individually to each machine as the number of infected machine is huge. Thank you.
