Hello,

Im having alot of issues with the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader 19 and want to go back to 18. I can do this fine, however it keeps updating. I have stopped the Adobe updater service, and also the Adobe ARM service, as well as removed the scheduled task which the install creates, but it keeps updating. I have also changed the mode registry key to 0 (Do not download or install updates) This is on a Terminal Server so im not sure if its prompting other users to update and they are clicking ok, but I need any prompts to stop and for it to remain on 18 - Any ideas please?
