...when I have 2+ documents open. I have seached the forum and found only incorrect answers. It's blue, in the upper right corner. Research on the forums DC, Acrobat, Reader, etc., indicates this has been happening for a long time, well over a year.

After following the instructions (multiple times), I tried saving, close/open, and reboot. Nothing works.

Hi,
Could you please let me know how are you Closing the Application in your last session?
Is it by the "Close" icon in the Acrobat window or you are killing the Acrobat Process through Task Manager / Batch execution?
In case of normal Closing the application(using the Close Icon), that message should not come on next launch.
However, if this still happens for you during normal exit, I would request you to do this once :
Could you please try by doing the below steps and share your findings with us:
1) Close Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
2) Open Run -> Regedit.exe (Registry Editor)
3) Navigate to path : HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Acrobat\DC\SessionManagement
4) Right Click on the "SessionManagement" key and Delete it
5) Relaunch Acrobat and observe Try for all further sessions of Reader and let me know if deleting this key works for you and that the message should not come?
Thanks

If you would like to reopen your PDFs from last session automatically , you can do it as Open Preferences -> General -> select the preference "Open PDFs from last session on Acrobat launch".
This will ensure that you will not get the blue dialog for "Reopen Closed tabs" again.
Let me know if that helps ?
Thanks

I have no such entry.
Just to clarify. This ONLY happens if I open one PDF document, minimize it, then open another PDF document (and every subsequent document opening) (this happens often for me). It has nothing to do with closing a file. All my stuff is always up to date.

This Blue box "Reopen Closed PDF's" appear on average until 10-15 PDF docs restarts.
If you will delete SessionManagement (according to @Ayush__Jain ) on next restart Adobe Reader this key(SessionManagement) will be create one more time, so this is pointless.
Privately, in my opinion, the fact that the company has not been able to fix the error for 5 years by adding a button in the preferences is slightly funny, but that is only my opinion.
I will test this solution on over 2000 pdf's, but if this solution (based on @DevilDoc325 answer, of course) will work in your case too please add answer on post that you mentioned, for future answer seekers who may not find it here
