Acrobat updates... please make them like other CC updates

This has happened more than several times, and always late at night when I'm tired. WHY does Acrobat have it's own update mechanism? And WHY does it always want to update when I want to turn my Mac off for the night? It then goes into a cluster#$%@ cycle of telling me I can't shut down, but letting me try anyway.

 

Put Acrobat's update function in the CC app JUST LIKE EVERY OTHER ADOBE APP so I can update it WHEN I WANT TO!

 

Come on, man... this is 2023!

Hi @rcoda1 

 

Hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that.

 

You can turn off the Automatic updates of Acrobat Pro from the preferences. Go to Edit > Preferences > Updater > uncheck '' 'Automatically install updates' > Click OK and reboot the computer once and see if that works for you.
