For a list of known issues and more in-depth troubleshooting, see Troubleshoot Adobe Reader installation Windows. To see if other users are experiencing similar download and installation problems, visit the Acrobat Reader user forum. Adobe Acrobat Reader DC software is the free global standard for reliably viewing, printing, and commenting on PDF documents. And now, it's connected to the Adobe Document Cloud − making it easier than ever to work across computers and mobile devices.

I've tried just pushing the error message offscreen, but eventually my computer will slow to a crawl and I have to reboot anyway.

If you click OK or the X, it will just keep coming back (immediately). Same if you try to kill it in Task Manager. Same if you do a cmd and type 'taskkill -im werfault.exe /f' (Doing that produces hilarious results...its tells me SUCCESS a hundred times before returning me to the command line, as if IT was just hitting 'okay' over and over). (That was suggested here, fyi...https://forums.adobe.com/thread/1983403 ...I wouldn't've known to try that myself.)

My own google-fu comes up with suggestions to either turn off Windows Error Reporting in the action center (since werfault is Windows Error Reporting executable) or opening administrative tools, locating werfault.exe under services, and either choose disable or 'stop' (which is always greyed out anyway unless I hit 'start' first.) You guessed it, none of these steps work. Neither did uninstalling and reinstall Adobe Reader, which I need.

I'd be happy if EITHER I could prevent this error message from occuring OR I could kill it without rebooting, but as I've tried to demonstrate, multiple approaches towards both possibilities have all failed.

Whenever user opens up a PDF (Either in an attached email or from the desktop), the 'RdrCEF.EXE - Application Error' will pop up. See attached. I have tried the following:
Complete uninstall/reinstall of Adobe Reader DC
Clearing out Temporary data of Adobe in the AppData folder
Opening Adobe as Administrator
Forcing the Right tool bar to not open on startup through preferences
After clicking OK, the adobe does not crash and the user can continue viewing the PDF.
Any troubleshooting steps or advice would be helpful.
