Im using Acrobat Reader DC Enterprise for install to 2016 Windows RDS

On 2 separate servers on different days the install has auto updated from Adobe Reader DC 32-bit to Acrobat Pro DC 64-Bit. This is causing significant grief as it equires a paid account to login to.

 

I went through all servers yeasterday and reinstalled them using the same packagae above. Today it has happened again.

 

What am i missing?

This has now resurfaced on the same server with the registry entries in place to prevent the update from 32bit to 64bit.

This has really just ruined my day.

 

Can any one provide some insight into if im doing something wrong or have adobe changed the rules around using Reader on RDS?

This appears like a good workaround

So curious why this is just an issue now
