why cant i open more than a couple instances of adobe acrobat at a time?

[wozzzzza]

been annoying me for years now, whenever i have a document open in adobe acrobat, i maybe able to open a second one but my chances of being able to open a third one is almost zero, it just wont open then a while later give me an error popup saying "a running instance of acrobat has caused an error"

anyone know why this happens? is it an abode limitation??

"Ticked" & "toggle" are entirely different terminologies.
