Question

Incredibly annoying 'Survey' Popup

Every day, if I open Acrobat, I get a 'popup' asking me if I want to answer a survey about the program. I didn't and don't! After this had been going on for weeks, I finally broke down and completed the survey, hoping that this would stop the repeated annoyance. It didn't! This is diriving me crazy! How do you stop it?

Hi Pfletch

 

Hope you are doing well and sorry for the trouble. As described, you are getting the pop up message for survey everytime you start the application.

 

Please go to Edit (Win), Adobe Acrobat (Mac) > Preferences > General > Under messages from Adobe, uncheck, 'Show me messages when i launch Adobe Acrobat' > Click OK and reboot the computer

 

Regards

Amal

On further testing, I discovered that unchecking the box does nothing to the underlying settings! If you uncheck the 'Show me messages..." box and OK the changes, whether in Administrator or normal user mode, and then re-open Acrobat, with or without an intervening immediate reboot, the box is again (?still) checked - hence, presumably, the recurrent survey prompt. This is totally unacceptable!

I have recently started experiencing the annoying pop-ups too.

I always answered the Survey, but now it NEVER allows me to hit the SUBMIT button and the CANCEL button does nothing. 

It locks me out of using Adobe page I'm on until the pop-up goes away.

The only way to make it go away is to close Adobe from the Task Manager.

Super annoying. See screenshot.


i experiance the same and have to end task and force quit the application to get hte box off my screen.  Have you found any resolution to this issue?
