Since I updated my Acrobat DC a few weeks ago, its been a nightmare to use. I can't open more than one PDF at a time, the program constantly crashes or won't close (unless I use Task Manager to end the task) and I can't edit PDFs.
I have restarted, uninstalled and reinstalled with no luck.
One breakthrough is that I've created a new Windows test profile and the program seems to be working fine in that so it looks perhaps like an issue to do with my Windows profile. What do I do now??
Thanks

Hi,
As per the issue description mentioned above, Acrobat is crashing when trying to open second pdf file using Acrobat as well as unable to edit pdf in the application, is that correct?
Could you check if you have the latest version of Acrobat installed on the machine using "Check for updates" option under "Help" menu, You may also download updates from here: Adobe software and product updates
Reboot the machine after installing update and try again.
Is there any error message when Acrobat crashes?
What is the dot version of Acrobat and the operating system installed on the machine? You may refer to the steps given in this link on how to check the version in Acrobat: Identify the product and its version for Acrobat and Reader DC
Let us know if you need any help.

Hi Shivam,
Acrobat DC crashes with general use...when trying to open the second PDF nothing happens.
With a crash there is no error message, the program just freezes and the only way to close it is through the task manager
I also cannot print PDFs
I have checked for updates and definitely have the latest version 2019.008.20081
I'm in Windows 10 Home Version 10.0.17134 Build 17134
Thanks
