Check if a string with value data “Adobe.Acrobat.ContextMenu” is not blocked by windows machine.
String Path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell

If the string is present under the window’s blocked keys, just remove this particular string from above location of affected machine and then restart.
The above string should be under the Approved folder only.
