Unable to update Acrobat Reader

Question

Acrobat Reader Continuous Release Version 2021.001.20142.

I am unable to update Adobe Acrobat Reader. I tried to uninstall several times. I ran AdobeAcroCleaner_DC2021.exe and rebooted and still was unable to uninstall or reinstall. I received an error message "Uninstallation of the patch is not supported."
