Disable Adobe Font LOCKDOWN!

  • July 21, 2026

I have Creative Cloud Desktop and Acrobat Pro installed. Creative Cloud has a preference setting to disable Adobe Fonts. If this gets turned on, then it messes up Acrobat Pro such that I cannot use any Windows System installed fonts. The only way I can fixed this is to uninstall Acrobat and re-install and make sure Adobe Fonts is disabled. HORRENDOUS!!!

The really nasty thing is that Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop keeps turning Adobe Fonts on again either when I use Photoshop or when it installs an upgrade,

THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE AND IS CRITICAL TO MY WORK.

I need a setting in registry or group policy to lockdown that Adobe Fonts can never be turned on again, in other words a lock down for this setting, Adobe just does not seem to understand this stuff. 
 

PLEASE FIX/PROVIDE!

    This is a known problem verified with Adobe  add number ADB-46205454-Q6Y7, but not getting fixed  see also post https://zqn0l547.r.us-west-2.awstrack.me/L0/https:%2F%2Fcommunity.adobe.com%2Ftopic%2Fshow%3Ftid=1632222%26postid=7708261/2/0101019f6d01071d-a3158042-b138-40e1-9e8d-37a9b312b3d1-000000/AtSLR_lAWclMuiCEWOfFMqBiWj4=474

    Acrobat latest update introduced a now fonts dialogue for when Adobe Fonts is enabled that puts fonts into categories such as “on my computer” trouble is this category now only shows Adobe Fonts not windows system fonts - and as stated - cannot be fixed without  uninstalling and reinstalling. The issue is that Adobe Fobts keeps being re-enabled in Creative Cloud D

    esktop when I have expressly turned it off - unacceptable!

    Just to clarify, isn’t this the same problem you posted about in the link less than a week ago?

    Also, what happens when you click on the More Fonts link in the new interface?

    It is related but nut the same, the other post documents the issue with Acrobat Pro extensively snd that has been taken up formally as a recognised issue. (Issue being the new fonts dialogue being implemented and not showing windows fonts, the more fonts link just shows other languages available on Adobe Fonts).

    THIS POSTING is about Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop that keeps toggling Adobe Fonts back when I have turned it off, when it gets toggled back on Acrobat gets messed up again and I have to uninstall and reinstall. I have spent two and a half days on this already. I have locked down Acrobat so it never updates and have used AppLocker to prevent Adobe Creative Cloud Desktop from running including all background services so it does not do this / but going to these lengths to work around two separate product bugs/failures for such expensive products is unacceptable.

    May have to move to Foxit and Affinity and get rid of Adobe completely because so much stuff is messed up these days.

    What are you doing (i.e., what process or what tools) that you can’t see the Windows fonts? I have the Adobe fonts enabled and have full access to my Windows fonts when adding text.
