Acrobat Export PDF doesn't recognize my current, active subscription

Hi, I have a current Adobe Export PDF subscription, but when I open Adobe Acrobat it says I am on a trial version that will expire in 7 days and I can't figure how to make the software recognize my active subscription. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, but to no avail.

    ... and if this all does not work, your only option is to get in touch with Adobe's customer support.

    thank you for your answer. at this point, I will wait a bit to try this solution, as I cannot aford to lose access to this function at this moment, for work reasons, so I'll wait for my PAID "trial period" to expire, in 6 days... I'll let you and the rest of the community know how it went when I eventually do it. 🙂
