I have two books that used to open fine now neither will.  It says that the files are missing  BUT -

The files are located in the proper location  -- /my digital editions -- .

If I go into the folder and click on it directly  Adobe acrobat pro opens up and tells me the document requires DRM features and asks if I want to open it in Digital Editions.  When I say yes Another dialog box open and says unable to open - Errors were encountered in this item.

This program used to work fine but have not used it in a while.  No changes to the OS or other issues.

Please help.

    I had a similar problem. version 4.5.7 refused to open .epub files under Windows 10 although the same files opened on other devices. I deleted ADE 4.5.7 and replace it with version 4.5.2. Problem fixed!

    It is time that ADOBE got their act together and looked at this problem.
