This does not look good.  I am also surprised that System Restore would do that; normally System Restore does not touch user data (Program Files); only system data (Windows).
I suggest that you run the Acrobat Removal Tool http://labs.adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html (multiple times, until all Reader installations are gone), then delete these duplicate install folders, and install Reader again.

  • Acrobat Reader won't open

    I previously had a trial version of Acrobat Reader which expired. I then purchased it and have the following issues when I try to open it. Clicking "Reopen" does not do anything. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi Jessicalang,
    Please provide us the operating system details.
    Did you try to license the trial version or simply reinstalled it again?

  • Acrobat reader doesn't open automatically anymore

    Hello,
    since my last update to READER 8, Acrobat reader doesn't open automatically on clicking on a PDF file anymore. When I download a PDF file for opening it doesn't work either. I need to "open with Acrobat Reader 8" to succeed. I tried to update to Reader 9 and have the same problem. So now I need to first download and Save on my HD the PDF file and then open with Reader 9 to open it.
    Could you please telle me how to come back to the old way to open my files just by clicking on them.
    Thanks

    To solve the pesky file association problem after installing a new Adobe Acrobat Reader software program in Windows XP, try this:
    1. RIGHT-CLICK on the icon of the older problem pdf file that youre trying to open.
    2. A menu window will appear. In this window, click open with.
    3. Another menu window will appear listing most of the programs on your had drive. If you have installed a new Acrobat Reader, it should be there. Click ONLY ONCE (do not double-click) on it to highlight it.
    4. In the same window, near the bottom -- but NOT in the list of programs -- there is box labeled Always use the selected program to open this kind of file. Click on this box.
    5. Click OK.
    This should solve the problem for ALL Adobe Reader pdf files on your hard drive.
    Hope this helps!

  • Adobe Classroom in a book file won't open anymore

    I have a Framemaker 7 Classroom in a book file that won't open anymore. I purchased in in 2006
    and it's worked for years. There is no error message. I keep getting redirected to Adobe Digital Editions website. So I've installed the Adobe Digital Editions software and still no luck. I spent 2 hours on the phone this morning with Adobe support and their final conclusion is they don't support this issue.
    Anyone have any ideas? All my other pdf's open with out any trouble. Some of them are ancient.
    Thanks,
    June

    You may use the forum for Adobe Digital Editions.

  • Adobe Reader won't open

    just posted a long question (1st time on this forum) & been sent here after creating a username - do I really need to re-type everything all over again or can someone there see it?
    just in case.....
    Adobe Reader won't open - I eventually get a message saying there is no default mail client & telling me to run Outlook & set it as the default mail client (I'm not going to do that).  I then get a message saying that Adobe is not responding.  Uninstalled & re-installed & problem persists.

    Since you mention Outlook, I assume that you are on Windows.  Here are some things to try...
    Using Windows Explorer navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Reader 11.0\Reader, then double-click on Eula.exe and accept the license agreement
    Can you open Adobe Reader by itself?  If so, try disabling Protected Mode [Edit | Preferences | Security (Enhanced)].
    If you cannot open Reader by itself, try to disable Protected Mode in the registry; download, unzip, then run the attached registry script
    It could even be a malware issue; see http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/reader-core-dll-error.html

    There are multiple problems with these forums, and unfortunately things like that happen all the time (to all of us).

  • Adobe Presenter CRASHES and won´t open anymore

    I am already with Adobe Presenter 8.1 (64 bits) and with Office 2013. Whenever I start recording a powerpoint presentation, with myself in the webcam (Logitech c-920), something happens that avoids me to record with my webcam again. After the crash, if I open Adobe Presenter (not through Powerpoint - but through the desktop shortcut), nothing happens...my webcam does not start and Adobe presenter simply does not open. I ran as administrator...nothing. Even through powerpoint, adobe presenter won´t record anymore. The only way to solve this is UNINSTALLING adobe presenter and installing it again. Then I can use it once more till the next crash. There is something wrong and I just can´t figure out what it is. Help!

    The problem in detail:
    - Open Powerpoint 2013 presentation
    - Open Adobe Presenter through Powerpoint
    - record
    - publish
    - ok...
    Closes. Next time, it won´t open anymore...
    If I only open Adobe presenter (before the crash) and open preferences (to choose webcam, microphone, etc.) it will crash in the very moment I close the preferences window.
    My office 2013 is 32 bits. Is there an Adobe Presenter 8.1 32bits? Would that be the problem?

  • Acrobat Pro won't open, how do I restore it?

    My Acrobat Pro won't open, how do I restore it?

    Yes, updates run each time I reinstall Bill.
    On one forum, it was suggested to download Adobe cleaner.  I ran it every time before reinstalling.  Adobe XI Pro works after that, but is so unstable.  Cant figure out what triggers it to stop launching. 

  • Adobe reader won't open on iPad after recent update

    After most recent update, adobe reader won't open on my iPad. I have lots of docs that I need to get to. Please help.

    This forum is probably the best you can do. We're now on the weekend, and Adobe engineers don't work 24/7. When they return on Monday and see the reports, they'll work to fix it. The update will need to be submitted to Apple and then approved for an update.
    Note that there are other apps on the App Store which can read PDFs.

  • Adobe reader won't open, even after re-download

    adobe reader won't open because of error - NEED PDF READER NOW!!!!!!!!!

    The reason is Adobe has not updated there software yet to play well with Mavericks. The fault is of course with the Adobe Software. I suggest you go to there web site and see if they have a fix yet for there software, If not all you can do is continue to check back with them or get on there fourms and see what others have to say about this same issue.

  • For some reason Safari and App store won't open anymore. Everytime I try to open them they crash and it says it's because of the webkit2 plug-in. Anyone know how to fix this problem?

    If you are getting an 'invalid security code' message then is the address on your iTunes account exactly the same (format and spacing etc) as on your credit card bill : http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1646 ? If it is then you could try what it says at the bottom of that page :
    If the issue persists, contact your credit card company and verify that they and any company they use to process credit card authorizations have the correct information on file.
    And/or try contacting iTunes support : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Express Lane, then iTunes > iTunes Store

  • I upgraded to Lion and now can't print PDF files and Acrobat reader doesn't work anymore. What can I do to get it working?

    I upgraded to Lion and now can't print PDF files and Acrobat reader doesn't work anymore. What can I do to get it working?

    If you upgraded and were using a version of Acrobat Reader that was legacy, that is PPC compatible, then you will have to upgrade to a version compatible with Lion as Lion no longer has Rosetta to interface with the legacy software.
    I know that Acrobat, full version, 10 works with Lion...use it myself.

  • Reader won't open docs. mac. error message.

    Reader won't open any docs.  Error message "Adobe Reader could not open (file name) because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged . . . ."  Mac system 10.7.5.

    Ok, it's probably how you save the files.
    DON'T use Save from the File menu in Safari
    DON'T use any save icon in a safari toolbar
    Use only
    1. Right/ctrl click on a link to a PDF BEFORE showing it, save from the pop-up menu (no good if the PDF comes from a button, and in some other cases)
    2. Hover to get the ADOBE toolbar and save from that.
