Acrobat DC using 20GB of disk space

Try 60GB.  I just noticed this and am shocked and amused

We don't know how you are measuring how much space Acrobat uses, but if you are looking at the Windows Program & Features control panel, be aware that its Size information is notoriously inaccurate. On all my Windows 10 x64 systems, the latest full installation of Acrobat Pro DC uses less than 2.25GB including all the extra plug-ins I have installed as well as configuration files. (Note that Program & Features control panel on these same systems claims 8.26GB. What may be happening is that this control panel keeps a running score of the space used by all files installed without taking into account that the updaters delete the older, pre-updated files as part of their cleanup.

Hey Henryk,

Acrobat DC doesn't occupies this much of disk space. If your is 20GB then there's something wrong. May be you have got a lot of updates, each update  least adds 3x its download size.

If you get a lot of updates, then uninstall the application once and reinstall. And the one latest update, will reduce disk storage space.

You can use cleaner tool to remove application: Download Adobe Reader and Acrobat Cleaner Tool - Adobe Labs

For more details about the system requirements of Acrobat DC, you may refer to this article: Adobe Acrobat system requirements, supported platforms
