Adobe Acrobat DC Reader titlebar disappears

I just purchased a Dell Vostro 14 3405 AMD Ryzen 5 3450U with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx with Windows 10 Pro. I installed my WindowBlinds 10.84 through Object Desktop. When I activate Windowblinds everything skins well...except Adobe Acrobat Reader (latest version). The titlebar disappears and the app cannot be moved. I have to use ALT command to see the option to close Adobe. I have done the following to try to resolve the issue:
1. Configue WindowBlinds to exclude Adobe (titlebar still missing)

2. Uninstall Adobe, restart system then reinstall Adobe (problem persists)

3. Not use WindowBlinds (Adobe works fine, but now cannot use WindowBlinds - which I have used for over 20 years)

Can anyone help? I would appreciate your feed back 😉

Thank you

Craig Giese

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. But, I exclude Adobe Acrobat Reader on mine and it working fine for me. Here a screenshot of it on my system. Did you exclude the correct exe files?

Thanks

I believe the latest version is called Acrobat.exe not AcroRd32.exe

Thank you for your input Neil. However, it appears that the latest PDF reader that is supplied from Adobe Acrobat is this

I downloaded this app directly from Adobe's website.

Thanks again though for trying.

Curious as the latest from Adobe directly is now 64 bit and renamed (I downloaded it for other reasons earlier today). Yours seems to be 32 bit suggesting a legacy version is installed.

The symptoms you seem to be experiencing look very much like WB isn't excluding it for some reason.

Something to try is holding down ctrl when it is launched. Does this exclude it?

Dude! You did it! The ctrl option did the trick (why is that...out of curiosity). Also you mention Adobe 64 bit, it's true I've only seen still the 32 bit version. How can I get the 64 bit version?

Thanks a mil

I just downloaded it from here : Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, free PDF viewer download

As a temporary solution you can disable the run in an app container option in adobe acrobat reader settings. It will then skin.

I think the issue with exclusions is it has been blocked from reading the exclusions file hence not being excluded correctly other than using the ctrl key (which needs no file access)
