A few weeks ago, I installed the latest Adobe Reader. In doing so, the new Adobe Acrobat Reader DC became my default PDF viewer and worked for about a week. For that week, I was able to view any PDFs in my files and loved using the system. Then a few days ago, Adobe Acrobat Reader DC stopped working. Now it won't open any PDFs new and old.
Do more with the leading PDF viewer
More powerful than other PDF software, Adobe Acrobat Reader DC is the free, trusted standard for viewing, printing and annotating PDFs. And now, it’s connected to Adobe Document Cloud — so it’s easier than ever to work with PDFs on computers and mobile devices.

With Acrobat Reader DC, you can do even more than open and view PDF files. It’s easy to add annotations to documents using a complete set of commenting tools.
