I would like to install Adobe Acrobat Professional XI on my new desktop. I understand that this version is no longer supported because Adobe has discontinued technical support, updates, and security fixes.

Could you please advise on the next steps or suggest an alternative solution?

@hueng lueil62383314 yeah, Adobe Acrobat Professional XI is from 2012, and running on an updated on Windows 11 or any late late 2019 onwards for Macs! If you don't want to go through the subscription route, you could buy a 3-year perpetual license version of Acrobat.  It's available as a 3-year term license, non-renewing, and paid upfront. Once activated, you can use it offline for the entire term.

"3-year perpetual version" is an oxymoron. "Perpetual" means "never ending", so it can't be both perpetual and have a time limit...

@try67 Ys, I think I was thinking in my head as 'license' but my fingers type in the wrong word! I have updated that post!
