I successfully installed Adobe Acrobat Pro 2017 in Windows 10, but when right-clicking any file in explorer I get the following error which keeps popping up!
This is in Dutch, but says it cannot be start because the parallel configuration is not correct.
When I uninstall Acrobat, the error disappears. Any ideas?
I show you a easy way to FIX this ERROR.
First of of you need CCleaner installed.
Now open it.
Now Goto ---> Tools.
Click on Startup.
Click on Context Menu.
Select adobe acrobate programs may be there is one or two.
Delete those program.
Done 🙂

Hi Gvacz,
Are you trying to convert a file in Windows Explorer to a pdf using convert to Adobe PDF option and getting this error? If yes, please try following troubleshooting steps:
1- Reboot the machine if you haven't already and try again.
2- If that doesn't work, check if an update is available for Acrobat using "Check for updates" option under "Help" menu, reboot the machine after installing update and try again. You may also download updates from here: Adobe - Adobe Reader : For Windows
Also, let us know dot version of Acrobat installed on the machine? You may refer to the steps given in this link on how to check the version: Identify the product and its version for Acrobat and Reader DC
Thanks,
Shivam

No that is not correct, I get the error when I just right-click on any file, not even taking any action.
I completed steps 1 and 2, same error...

Could you confirm if you are getting the error same as mentioned in this link: Error: "...Side-by-side configuration incorrect" | Adobe Creative Suite 4 | Windows If yes, try installing Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 runtime as suggested,
Then, uninstall Acrobat using cleaner tool which you can download from here: Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs , reboot the machine, and install Acrobat 2017 from this link: Download Acrobat 2017 , reboot the machine and check. ( You need your Acrobat 2017 serial number to complete the installation.)
Thanks,
Shivam

No, see my original entry of this ticket. It doesn't even look like it...
I already did a re-install, cleaner tool etc.
I don't think you can resolve my problem by yourself, please escalate to an SME.. You are just guessing

As suggested by you, I contacted support via chat, but they couldn't solve my problem either and someone from 2nd line would contact me, but up to now, nobody did...

I get the exact same error on Windows 10 (64-bit, version 1803, build 17134.304).
I get the error when:
I don't get the error when:
It seems like whenever I right-click Explorer expects something called AcroTray to load (for a shortcut or something?) and it brakes Explorer.
And the error in the Task Manager:
TL;DR: You broke Windows Explorer with ArcoTray. Please fix it.

Hi Ewoutt,
As you get the error message, try once the troubleshooting steps mentioned by Adorobat in reply 5 on this forum thread Windows cannot find 'c:\.....\AcroRd32.exe' with a similar issue.
Check if that helps.
If the issue still persists, please share the details as asked below;
- Current application version
- Is it an issue with all the PDF that you try to access?
- Where exactly the files are saved?
- Since when you start experiencing the issue?
- Did you make any recent changes to the application?
We will be waiting for your response.
Feel free to update the thread if you need any help.
Regards,
Meenakshi

Gvacz,
Did you ever resolve this. I have the same problem.
This happened after I ran Zemana and Malware Bytes anti malware software. Malware Bytes detected that malware called "WebDiscoverBrowser" had been installed. I quaranteened it, Zemana discovered problems with several Acrobat files including acrotray.exe. It quaranteened them automatically. Then I started getting the error. I went back in and told Zemana to restore it. Then I did not get the error. Now today, I am getting the error. I see that indeed the acrotray.exe does not exist. Some how it got deleted.
I am going to attempt to reinstall acrobat reader

Friendly neighborhood PootLoops here!
I was able to replicate this issue by disabling AcroTray in task manager on startup and resolved the issue on my own. Please open task manager, go to the startup tab and make sure acrotray is enabled then restart. After, open up adobe acrobat and click on the help tab and select "Repair Installation". Let it do its thing and you should be a-ok!
I came here looking for a quick answer, but got frustrated seeing all the guess work and took care of it myself instead. I do hope this helps, and if not, sorry!
