Adobe Acrobat and Windows 10

Hi Dianne,

Sorry for the delay in response.

If you have issues with acrobat reader, we would suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the application.

• To uninstall, type appwiz.cpl
• Right click adobe acrobat reader and then Uninstall
  it.

You may also check for the reader app in store and then install it.

 

Adobe Acrobat

You certainly have my permission to use Adobe Acrobat, if that makes any difference. ;-)

Although you can install applications from a Standard user account with the 'Run as Administrator' option, some applications just install better from an Administrators account.

• Sign in to a user account with Administrators permissions.
• Download the installer for Adobe Acrobat.
• Temporarily disable your antivirus protection.
• Install Adobe Acrobat. Open the program and wait until it's completely loaded.
• Close Adobe Acrobat. Re-enable your antivirus protection.
• Sign out of the Administrators account and sign back in to your Standard account.

You should be good to go.
