@mglisson971@gmail.com  I am assuming you are on a PC.... a common method is to right-click a PDF file, select "Properties," and then click the "Change" button next to "Opens with." This opens a list of applications; you can then select "Adobe Acrobat" or "Adobe Acrobat Reader" and click OK to apply the change to all PDF files.

If you are on a MAC, it's similar like a PC, by right-clicking a PDF file and selecting "Get Info" from the context menu. In the "Get Info" window, find the "Open with" section, choose Adobe from the dropdown menu, and then click "Change All" to ensure all PDFs will open with Adobe in the future.
