Hi,
I have a Macbook Air 13" running El Capitan 10.11.4 - with 8 GB RAM. Just tried to install Acrobat Reader DC for Mac. The app will not open PDF files - it crashes repeatedly and simply will NOT open any PDF file.
The PDF files were originally created using Acrobat DC Pro version - from CC (latest edition).
When moving the PDF files over another computer (the laptop in question) the Acrobat Reader will simply crash upon opening.
Attempted to uninstall and reinstall. Attempted a reboot after a reinstall. Attempted to launch other PDF files to see if the files in question are corrupt - no luck.

Hi Steven,
If possible please provide your console log. Follow steps mentioned below to get the console log:
a. Launch Console(/Application/Utilities/Console)
b. Clear all messages(using Clear display option)
c. Launch Acrobat Reader and wait for it to close
c. Once Acrobat Reader closes, save the console log(File-Save a Copy as). Please paste the log here.
Regards,
Rave

I am having the same problem, but my Adobe does not actually close unless I force it to. It just hangs out there like an invisible program. Here is a copy of my log:
