Can't open any file nor use any of the menu options in Acrobat DC

[DTP_apac_Venga]

After trying to troubleshoot for quite a while and uninstalling all of Creative Cloud and reinstalling again, this issue remain: when I open Acrobat DC (either by double clicking on a PDF or by opening the app) no file is shown and none of the options in the menus trigger any action. So basically, Acrobat opens, it runs, it's there, it's not crashing, but it won't do anything. At all.

Other CC apps and Acrobat Reader run without issues, but I'm unable to use any of the features in Acrobat.

Has anyone experienced this? I couldn't find any documentation on this behavior.

Thanks,
J

Thanks, kglad‌. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be the preferences or at least not the ones described in the article. I removed everything resembling "acrobat", emptied the trash just in case but still get the same behavior.

I noticed though that after deleting the preferences the list of recent document still shows a few results. Maybe I'm missing some preferences somewhere?
