When I open Adobe Acrobat (Creative Cloud), the welcome screen/window shows and wants me to open a pdf, then edit a pdf, and so on.  I have completed the requird steps numorus times and it still pops up when I open Acrobat.  How can I get this screen to stop showing.  This started with the last update. Your help with this matter is greatly appreciated.

    how are you opening acrobat?  eg, if you click a pdf (and acrobat is your default pdf app), that pdf should open in acrobat and no welcome screen is expected.  however, if you just click the acrobat icon, that's expected.

    Please show us a screenshot of your Welcome screen. Also, what are your OS and Acrobat versions (not "latest")?
