Automatically import created Actions into Adobe Acrobat

Question

I have a folder with several actions and I need to configure several computers importing adobe actions.

I know how to make a batch script to copy from my pendrive to the default actions folder: \AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\DC\Sequences

But that's not enough. I need to change something so that Adobe starts recognizing the actions.
