Adobe Acrobat v23.6.20320.0 will not run unless you use administrator privilege

All of a sudden my desktop shortcuts quit working......Adobe Acrobat would not run unless you 'right clicked' and ran as admin. So I went to the executable file location C:/program files/adobe/acrobat dc/acrobat and tried to run it but the same thing happened - it would not run unless you ran as Admin. What happened??? This was never the way it worked. Also none of my .pdf document shortcuts on my desktop work!! PLEASE HELP!
