Try uninstall and again reinstall Acrobat Reader.

For the longest time, PDFs might launch or might not. Sometimes they took about 15 minutes to appear after launching them. After some Googling I was left without a concrete solution. I do believe there are multiple possible causes for this error, that certainly seems to be the case according to the myriad bits of advice I've turned up from the search engines.
