Hi ,

If it is a password protected file ,you would need to type in the password to access the file.

Please share the screen shot with us so that we can get to know what exactly is the error message you are receiving.

Also tell the OS you work on.

If possible ,please share the file on dim85201@adobe.com so we can review it at our end and update you accordingly.

Hi Sukrit,

Thank you for looking into my problem. Below are the answers:

1. At my home I am using Win 10 (32 bit) and Acrobat 9

2. In my office am using Win 7 (64 bit) and Acrobat 10

In both the cases I am getting the attached error.

As you can understand there is no place where I can put in the password. Please let me know if you need any further details.

Thanks once again

Hi ,

You would experience issue at home as Acrobat 9 is not a compatible version with Windows 10.

However at your office ,i.e Acrobat 10,try updating it to the latest patch.

Also try to repair it once and see if that helps.
