Hi Alex,

This is not linked to Acrobat, you may check Microsoft this is known issue with Microsoft Word: Grant File Access: Word cannot open the document: user does - Microsoft Community  It is sandboxed application. It restricts user with various workflows.

Unfortunately, there isn't much we can help at this Juncture.

Thanks for your suggestions.  For some reason it has stopped asking me this so I'm all good for now.
