Hi,

Thank you for reaching out.

As per your description above, you are using Adobe Acrobat version 7. Would like to inform you that Acrobat 7 is a very old and unsupported version. It is not compatible with Windows 10.

As you wish to fill the PDF form, I would suggest you use the Adobe Acrobat Reader DC application. 

You may install the application from this link: https://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/ 

Then open the PDF form in the application and use the Fill & Sign tool (https://helpx.adobe.com/reader/using/fill-and-sign.html).

If there are form fields already added to the form, then you can simply click on the fields and fill in the information. 

Let us know if you have any questions or need any help.

Thanks,

Meenakshi
