Adobe 8 (standard or professional) works perfectly fine under Win10.  I understand Adobe has chosen a different platform for its newer products (the cloud) but there's no need to mislead people about the viability of older products on new OS's.

Whether it works or not is irrelevant to the fact it's not compatible, which means it's not tested nor supported. So it might work just fine, and then stop working one day, or parts of it might not work correctly, or a whole bunch of other situations. And the cloud has nothing to do with it, it's just an older version of an application that's not compatible with an operating system that was released a long time after it. That's it. You might not like it, but it's true.

Hi Radomir,

The latest version of Windows is not compatible with Acrobat 8 Pro. This might be part of the problem you are facing.

Regards,

Ravi
