trunoff Adobe check default pdf app

Question

I install the adobe acrobat Reader DC on approx. 200 clients via a software distribution.

Every time I start Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, I am asked whether I want to make Adobe the default pdf viewer. I do not want this and I do not want this message to be displayed.

Text of the message: “Make Adobe Acrobat Reader DC my default PDF application.”

I have found the option in adob's “Preferences” and “General” that allows me to prevent the message from being displayed.

“ Notify me if Adobe Acrobat Reader DC is not my default PDF application.”

how can i automatically remove this tick via settings (gpo, powershell, ...)?

many thanks for your help!

I'm a Mac user, so I'm not too confident, but probably this is the registry location.
Acrobat
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\AVAlert\cCheckbox
Reader
\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\DC\AVAlert\cCheckbox
