terminal server adobe pro DC How do we set adobe reader to be windows default

Question

We are moving to datacenter with terminal server virtual environment.   We have adobe pro DC for some users who have a login.   How do we set adobe reader to be windows default for adobe pdf so that things (like quickprint) will launch reader instead of pro.  They get prompted to login and do not have logins.   Same with doc view in a browser, it won't open

I am having a similar problem. We have adobe pro and reader on our terminal servers (Windows server 2016). Ever since the last update to reader all pdf links that display in a browser are trying to use acrobat (not reader) to open. Users can not change the default on there own because of windows UAC restrictions. Also tried setting the acrobat protocol to reader but it no longer to shows that as an option.
