Documents are complete invisible in Acrobat 11 Standard

I've used Acrobat 11 Standard for years, but with a recent update it is now bizarre:  the first document opens fine, but when I open a 2nd or more everything becomes invisible. I can't see anything, not even the windows title bar. When I alt-Tab back to the 1st all is visible. But even Window select 2 makes everything invisible. Rebooting the laptop (Win 10, new HP Spectre) doesn't help.
Anyone else have this ... or have a solution?
If I thought the last update could be undone and it would work, I would do that; but don't know how.

We're seeing a lot of these reports recently. It's most likely caused by a recent update to your OS.
Acrobat XI is outdated and barely compatible with Windows 10, so any update to the latter might "break" it.

You should make sure you update Acrobat to the latest version available (11.0.23, available here: ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/acrobat/win/11.x/), and maybe run it in Compatibility Mode with an earlier OS, but that's about all you can do.

Thanks, however
  a) I have not interest or need for any "upgrade" - it adds junk and features I don't need, which get in the way of daily use ... and it is _very expensive_!

  b) that version 11.0.23 is apparently the one that is broken - how can I downgrade to the prior version, which worked just fine in Win 10?
