The instruction at 0x0... referenced memory at 0x0000000000000018. The memory could not be read. + LogTransport2.exe error
I've had four separate people call this week with the exact same error which seems to be stemming from Adobe Acrobat v25.001.20531 (specifically the paid version, not Reader). Nothing in particular seems to trigger the error, it seems completely random, happening about 3 times a day, sometimes triggered by opening or exporting PDFs, but otherwise I've been unable to find a direct cause or trigger, other than being related to Adobe. I've tried everything I can possibly think of - uninstalling, reinstalling, AcroClean, deleting all references to Adobe on the C: drive, uninstalling Creative Cloud, disabling add-ins, disabling Adobe Cloud services, disabling Task Scheduler items relating to Adobe, turning off Adobe on startup, turning off new Adobe, compatibility mode, troubleshooters, turning off protected mode/enhanced security/app container, sfc/dism scans, running all updates, repairing Office (just incase?), even tried different computers - but NOTHING is fixing this issue. The worst part is that Event Viewer won't give me any hints as to what exactly is causing it, but the only commonality between all four clients is they have Adobe Acrobat version 25.001.20531 and only get the error when Adobe is open. It must be some kind of silent background crash. I notice the PID is quite small, so it must be related back to something quite early on in computer startup... Sometimes on restart they get a LogTransport2.exe error as well, also related to Adobe.

Also having this issue on Adobe Acrobat 25.001.20577 on several PCs. The error seems to occur in acroML.dll in the function PDMediaQuerySetMediaType. I can provide crash logs if needed. Disabling Generative AI features in Preferences doesn't seem to have any effect.
