Adobe Acrobat Standard DC won't install!!!!

I have a Lenovo T450s that is less than a year old.  It came with Windows 7 professional. I downloaded Adobe Acrobat Standard DC and had no problem installing. I upgraded OS to Windows 10 professional and was having problems recently with Adobe Acrobat Standard DC So, i uninstalled the program in order to reinstall it with the same product key. Now it wont install. I get an error message that says "This application cannot be installed on this operating system. Setup will now terminate. Please refer to the minimum system requirements at http://www.adobe.com/go/acrobat_system_reqs,

Now, surely Adobe Acrobat can run on Windows 10 OS. This is extremely frustrating and even more frustrating that Adobe doesn't offer phone support for this issue. I have also already uninstalled Adobe Reader and run the cleanup tool but still get this error.

win 8.1 or win 7 are both ok.

Thanks for the suggestion. Didnt know you could do this. However, win 10 is not an option. It only goes to win 8.Is this really not compatable with win 10?
