I installed build 2015.010.20056, but was then unable to fill out and sign forms, which I used to be able to do.

HI JillWB‌,
What steps are you following? What is the error message (if any)?
Have you tried the Repair Installation?

I did what I used to do: click on Tools, then "fill in and sign"
(translated from French, so the wording may differ a bit). Only absolutely
nothing happens, and the "Add text" icon never appears. The repair
installation didn't help.

Fill & Sign have two different layouts (see the image below). Are you getting any one of these or is it something else?
Could you send a snapshot of the screen for better understanding. Also, could you try the same steps to this PDF‌ and post the snapshot as well.

Well, this is slightly embarrassing! I had uninstalled it again from my PC, so when I saw your last post, I reinstalled (I downloaded the installation file from the exact same location as previously) and opened a document in order to compare the layout with your images. Only now it works! The layout is the same as in your first image, and I can now fill in both text and signatures. Thanks for forcing me to try again!

Reader does not work for me also.
I have the newest version of reader and Windows 10 Pro 64bit (1703 build 15063.540)
Try to download and open the following file. Try to fill it in.
P.S.
Just installed different version: Adobe Reader XI 11.0.10 and it's working fine now for me.
Download and install an older version of Adobe Reader | Windows

The form that you have linked to is an XFA form and indeed cannot be filled out using the Fill & Sign tool in Acrobat or Reader DC, but can be filled out in Acrobat or Reader "natively" (not using Fill & Sign, but just clicking on the fields).
Thanks,
Josh

Dear Josh,
I didn't use any tools. I don't know anything about it. I just was trying to fill it out manually by clicking on the fields and typing. I twas freezing and crashing.
Cheers.
