Adobe (pdf) not responding

[mtldesigns]

Anyone else having issues with their PDFs opening but then not responding?  This is happening on my PC and laptop...

Mine seems to be working ok, I use Acrobat (latest )  . you might try to update to the latest version.

Yes - recently having issues with Adobe Reader.  It would freeze up with larger PDF files and I'd have to close down with Task Manager.  I figured an Adobe issue or maybe Windows.

Yeah I have update to the latest version, and repaired and uninstalled and reinstalled. Like Jim stated, only large files like our drawing packages, regular docs, doesn't seem to be an issue.

 

From CHAT

"There are current reports from Windows users running Acrobat 26.002.21931 saying Acrobat suddenly freezes or goes “Not Responding” immediately after opening PDFs. One detailed report says it started in late September, affects different PDFs, and Repair Installation, reinstalling Acrobat, changing drivers, and resetting preferences did not fix it"

 

Once I confirmed I did have .21931

There are current reports specifically for .21931 on Windows where Acrobat goes Not Responding after opening PDFs. One user documented Acrobat creating thousands of Windows objects until resources were exhausted; another reports the same build freezing on multiple Windows machines. Importantly, Repair Installation and even reinstalling did not solve it for some users.
