To solve this, you have to run the Adobe Acrobat Reader as the Administrator.

You can use the Run as Administrator menu option in your Adobe icon located in your desktop.

Choose Help then Check for Updates.

Follow onscreen instructions. You can be able to update successfully.

Or search for a patch to whatever version your Adobe is, install it then run.

I hope you can solve your problem with this solution.
