"There was an error while reading a stream." Error while opening or browsing files.

"There was an error while reading a stream." Is an error message I am getting while attempting to read comic PDFs I bought last year. The error will trigger at different points throughout each different pdf and cause select pages in the pdf to be completely blank. The page that triggers the error and the blank pages are the same every single time. 

I am on Windows 7, my Adobe Acrobat is up to date, and I already tried restarting my computer and Repair Installation.

Please reboot the machine once and navigate to Adobe Reader's Preferences and disable the 'Enable Protected Mode at startup'>click OK and relaunch Adobe Reader and check.

Are you getting this error message with all the PDF files or is it with a specific PDF file? Is it a scanned PDF file or PDF file with text?
