Recently, several users reported that their computer crashes after displaying the LogTransport2.exe application error, and this typically occurs after they start their PC. If you have been facing a similar issue, you’re in the right place. 

Before jumping straight to the solutions, let’s look at the causes behind the LogTransport2.exe Application Error.

LogTransport2.exe is a part of Adobe Acrobat and is responsible for sending data to Adobe. There are times when LogTransport2.exe acts up upon your attempt to shut down your PC, resulting in the error under discussion.

In this guide, we have listed some of the most effective solutions for you to resolve the LogTransport2.exe application error in no time. 

Let’s dive right in. 

1. Repair the Installation.

If your screen is displaying the LogTransport2.exe error on your PC, the first thing you should try doing is repair the installation. 

It is common for corruption errors and bugs within the program to cause the system to crash. Since it is difficult to identify these errors, one of the best ways to eliminate them is restoring all the installations to their initial state without uninstalling and reinstalling the application. 

Here is how you can repair the Adobe Acrobat Reader’s installation on your PC:

1. Close all the programs on your PC and then launch Adobe Acrobat Reader.
2. Inside the window, go to the Help tab and select Repair Installation.

3. Click on Yes to proceed with the repairing and once done, restart your PC. 

If a corruption error within the Adobe Acrobat Reader was causing the issue, repairing the installation will fix it by reverting the app to an error-free state. 

2. Update Acrobat Reader. 

You are likely to face the LogTransport2 error if you use an outdated version of the Adobe Acrobat Reader. 

Outdated versions can slow down the app’s performance and even cause frequent crashes, which is why we highly recommend updating your Adobe Acrobat Reader to its latest build. 

Installing updates usually do not take much time; unless you have quite a few pending updates piled up. 

Here is how you can update the Adobe Acrobat Reader on your PC:

1. Close all the programs on your PC and then launch Adobe Acrobat Reader.
2. Inside the window, go to the Help tab and select Check for Updates. 

3. If you have pending updates that must be installed, the system will let you know. In this case, follow the on-screen instructions to complete the process. 
4. Once the updates are installed, restart your PC. 

Installing the latest updates will hopefully fix the LogTransport2 error on your PC. However, if the Adobe Acrobat Reader had no pending updates, proceed to the next method below. 

3. Disabling Machine Learning, Desktop, and App Usage.

Most of the time, the error LogTransport2 occurs when the data fails to reach the Adobe servers. This can occur due to several reasons, including corrupted files, and the easiest way to solve this issue is to disable machine learning, desktop, and app usage. 

Don’t worry; disabling the features mentioned above will not affect the performance of Adobe Acrobat Reader. This method has helped several users, which is why we encourage giving it a shot. 

Here is what you need to do:

1. Launch your browser and go to Adobe’s privacy tab. 
2. Sign in with your account and navigate to Profile > Privacy.
3. Under the Desktop and app usage option, disable the ‘Yes, I’d like to share information on how I use Adobe desktop apps’ option.
4. Under Machine learning, disable the ‘Yes, allow my content to be analyzed by Adobe using machine learning techniques’ option. 

5. Once done, restart your PC. 

You should now be able to use your PC without any issues. 

4. Modify the Permissions via Windows Registry.

Whenever you download a program on your PC, Windows Registry stores its relevant information in the form of values or keys. You can perform troubleshooting steps within the Registry by editing these values and keys in case of errors. 

If you face the LogTransport2 error, you can modify the UsageCC registry key’s permissions. Doing so will prevent the transfer of Adobe’s log data to the main server, thus resolving the error in the process. 

Here is what you need to do:

1. Launch a Run dialogue box by pressing Windows + R keys simultaneously. 
2. Type ‘regedit’ in the text field of the dialogue box and hit Enter. 

3. Doing so will launch Windows Registry. Now navigate to the location mentioned below.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Adobe\CommonFiles\UsageCC

4. Right-click on UsageCC and select Permissions.

5. Now click on Advanced and select Disable inheritance.

6. Finally, click OK to save the changes. 
7. Again in the Properties wizard, locate SYSTEM and click on it. 
8. Click on Remove and then select OK. 

9. Once done, restart your PC. 

Hopefully, making changes in the Registry will help you fix the LogTransport2 error on your PC.
