This seems odd. Are you sure you didn't open up an old version of Acrobat by mistake? It seems like Livecycle was bundled with Acrobat X and removed for Acrobat XI... but XI was discontinued in 2017.

I've got Acrobat DC 2019.10.20064, which can edit, and CC doesn't show any updates available.

I would try opening Acrobat DC through the CC dashboard and trying to edit the file there. It seems likely there's a file association problem and maybe your new install of Windows has Acrobat XI installed by default.


Cheers,
Jim

Apparently this was bundled with Acrobat once upon a time. There is a workaround if you Google it hard enough. I have a fresh Windows 10 install, so my old versions of everything are history.
