The select tool does not work properly, even though the document properties security settings include no limitations.
This applies to text scanned documents (documents where Adobe has identified text).
The cursor looks like a crosshair and when you try to select text you only get a rectangular shaped box of the content as a picture, not the actual scanned text.
Thanks for your input!
Acrobat>Edit>Preferences>General>UNCHECK "Make hand tool select images before text" did the trick for me!

Hope you're doing well.

As mentioned above, the text selection tool looks like a rectangular-shaped box, and this generally happens when you've a scanned document with an image in it, not the actual content.
Also, navigate to Acrobat>Edit>Preferences>General>check "Make hand tool select images before text"
Try with a different file that has text in it, not just a scanned file.
Thanks,
