Hello, I am having a problem opening my Adobe Reader 9. When I click on it, I get the message, "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005). Click on OK to terminate the program." I've tried updating, uninstalling and reinstalling the reader, but nothing seems to work. It's becoming a real problem seeing as how I can't open any pdf's. Any suggestions? Thank you for you help.

There are many possible reasons for a 0xc0000005 error. What I suggest you should try first is to update to the latest Reader version 9.1 Please post back if the error still occurs with 9.1

Hi, thanks for the reply. I updated my Reader to 9.1, but I am still getting the same message. What can I do?

Is there anything in the Event Viewer (Applications, at the time of the occurrence) that can give you any more clue, e.g. some module name? Another question: are you running as an administrator user?

I don't recall exactly when it stopped working, but it was probably about a month and a half ago. Sorry, I don't know very much about computers, but in the Event Viewer, under Applications I see numerous warnings, the Sources being MsiInstaller and Userenv. Does that mean anything? And yes, I believe I am running as the administrator. Sorry I can't be of more help, thanks for your patience.

Please run it again, and note the exact time when you got the error message, then check the Event Viewer again for any entry at that time.

OK, so I ran it again and checked the Event Viewer. Under "Application", there is no notification, but under "System", it shows an Application Popup as the source at that time. I clicked on it and it opened up the Help and Support Center which says I need to reinstall the program to restore the driver to the correct location. But I have already tried that and it doesn't work. Suggestions on how to restore the driver? Here's the message: Details Product: Windows Operating System ID: 26 Source: Application Popup Version: 5.2 Symbolic Name: STATUS_LOG_HARD_ERROR Message: Application popup: %1 : %2 Explanation The program could not load a driver because the program user doesn't have sufficient privileges to access the driver or because the drive is missing or corrupt.

Reinstall the program to restore the driver to the correct location. If these solutions do not work, contact Product Support Services.
