I am working on Windows Forms application using C#, .net Framework 4.5 and also using acrobat reader PDF component Interop.AcroPDFLib
I was earlier creating PDF and running in C# apps then it was working fine, but last 1 day, I ran into new issue

An unhandled exception of type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException' occurred in AxInterop.AcroPDFLib.dll
Additional information: Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.

While loading PDF on given line:

axAcroPDF1.LoadFile(_URL);

Can anyone provide me any help, how can I resolve this issue. I tried this link https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-us/08adc799-e705-47d1-940c-3f91ef442cec/target-x86-platform-in-vc-express?forum=Vsexpressvcs[^] but don't working for me.

thanks

You need to see if there is any more information provided (maybe by GetLastError()) after the failure. Or maybe check the Acro documentation.

If we open Acrobat document directly (not apps) then it is opening perfectly, while from in our apps its throwing error.

You probably need to talk to Adobe.
