Hello,

I have installed Version 25.001.21288 an trying to update to 26.001.21529 using WinGet.

WinGet downloads AcroRdrDCx642600121529_MUI.exe and this prompts me to provide AcrobatReaderDC_23.003.20201.msi which I currently can’t find.

Where can I download that file to complete the installation?
