I recently bought Acrobat DC. Lately, after scanning a document to create a pdf, the application wants to close before I can save the document.

Similar issue, but my problem seems to happen mostly when I'm adding a scan to an existing PDF.
Changing to different user worked, and the scan completed quickly (it seems to take several seconds to complete if it completes without crashing on the original user account).
So what steps should I take to get it to work on the account I use daily?

Repairing the program did not work for me. I am using a Brother MFC-J6910DW. I have been using Acrobat to scan with it for years. The problem started a couple of months ago. I don't have this problem on other computers in the office using this same scanner.
This is a big problem for my workflow.
Acrobat Pro DC version is 17.012.20098

I am using Adobe Acrobat DC (18.011.20038) and it continues to crash during scans with my Brother MFC-J6935DW. Occasionally after three or four tries it doesn't crash.....Please fix this!! I'm on my second Brother printer and your software still does not function.

Can you please try a workaround. Scan from different path:
Tools> Create PDF> Scanner
Thanks.

Greg...I have been working on this same issue trying to incorporate everything shared in the forum. I had the problem several months ago, and the different path you suggested worked better but did not eliminate the problem. Now, that path is not working at all. I use Acrobat Pro DC and pay a healthy monthly subscription for Creative Cloud application access. Who can I speak with about what appears to be a major issue...not being able to use what's part of my subscription? Thanks. Ken

Identical problem, Canon DR-2850C scanner which works fine with Acrobat Pro X.
A few days ago I installed the trial version of Acrobat Pro DC. I have the same problem, which can be reproduced as follows:
1. Open Acrobat Pro DC
2. File, Create, PDF from Scanner; Canon DR-2580C TWAIN is already selected, as a custom scan settings.
3. Press "Scan" button.
4. One or more pages scan successfully, and OCR takes place to searchable image (exact).
5. Just as the last "Optimizing" dialog closes, Acrobat crashes, and Windows gives the "Adobe Acrobat DC has stopped working" message.
6. The scanned file is lost, and cannot be recovered the next time Acrobat is started.
I have tried rebooting, and repairing the installation via Windows Control Panel, Programs and Features - no change.
I have created and tried to upload the dump file (300 Mb) as per the instructions above, but the file will not upload into Adobe Cloud (gives the red warning triangle and the message "Unable to upload some files"). I can provide the dump file another way if desired. Other information has been sent to AnandSri via PM.
Scanning and OCR is 90% of why I use Acrobat, so if this cannot be resolved, I will cancel my trial of Acrobat Pro DC and return to using Acrobat Pro X.

Hello Zaniwoop,
I am sorry for the trouble you had and for the delayed response. What is the dot version of Acrobat installed? To identify, refer to Identify the product and its version for Acrobat and Reader DC
Make sure you have the latest version of Acrobat 19.008.20080 installed.
I have sent you a direct message with the instructions to share the log files, please check your inbox.
Thanks,
Anand Sri.

Issue is not resolved. Case # 0189517951 is still open.
When I try to scan a document, Acrobat DC stops working and closes.

Hi AnandSri,
Because I had both Acrobat Pro X and Acrobat Pro DC installed on the same machine, I suspected that the problem might be some sort of clash between the two versions. So I finally did a complete uninstallation of both Pro X and Pro DC, and cleaned the registry of all references to Acrobat.
Then I did a clean install of Pro DC, and updated it to the latest update - 2019.008.20080.
The problem persists - Open Acrobat, File, Create PDF from scanner, Scan - scan occurs, OCR and optimisation occurs and then Acrobat crashes before the file has been saved.
Will send dump files ASAP - short of time just now.

Hi Anand Sri,
The crash is still occurring, but I am unable to create the dmp file. When I run the procdump utility (with Acrobat not running, and under both normal or administrator privileges), it returns an error message as follows:
=============================================================
C:\Temp\Adobe>procdump -e -ma Acrobat.exe c:\temp\adobe\01.dmp
ProcDump v9.0 - Sysinternals process dump utility
Copyright (C) 2009-2017 Mark Russinovich and Andrew Richards
Sysinternals - www.sysinternals.com
No process matching the specified name can be found.
Try elevating the command prompt or using PsExec to make one as SYSTEM.
psexec.exe -s -d -i cmd.exe
procdump.exe -accepteula ...
C:\Temp\Adobe>
=============================================================
So I have shared the original dmp file from my first test on dropbox, and sent the link and share to [Email removed by Mod]

You have to have Adobe running first before running the procdump capture.

There is no "pop up" after Acrobat DC Pro crashes. There is no longer a process to right-click on for a dump file in the task manager. I don't see a dump file in C:\Users\DEREKR~1\AppData\Local\Temp.

I have been battling this for 8 months.
Tech support will make some changes, then wipe and reinstall and its good for a few weeks then progressively gets worse.
After scanning the last page the app goes grey and a window pops up and I have to start all over.
W7 Pro, Acrobat DC, on server domain with lots of memory.

I have the same multifunction scanner as Derek Rubinoff (Brother MFC-J6710DW) and am having the same problem - when I run a scan, Adobe immediately crashes before I have a chance to save the file. Very frustrating. Was this ever fixed? I am on Windows 10 and running Adobe Acrobat DC.
