Not a terribly productive thing to have happening.
One user worked around this by simply opening all pdf files in Chrome, which worked perfectly for viewing files. Unfortunately, this fabulous solution did not work for files which needed editing.
There were three other solutions proposed:
1. Go to Edit | Preferences | AccessibilityEach of these three solutions seemed to help some people, which I guess depended on which version of Adobe Acrobat you had (I am running Acrobat 2017).
2. Under Other Accesibility Options, untick "Enable assistive technology support".
3. Click OK (Adobe Support Community, 1 February 2019).
1. Start AdobeUpdater.exe in ...\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe\ Updater 5
2. In the update screen, click Preferences | untick Automatically Check for updates
3. click OK (Adobe, 17 December 2015).
1. Go to Edit | Preferences | Reading.
2. Under Screen Reader Options, select "Only read the currently visible pages"
3. Click OK (Adobe, 22 March 2016).
After about 24 hours, however, I found that the problem simply disappeared. I assume that Adobe tracked down the problem and stealth installed a patch.
