Adobe Acrobat DC Uninstall

Question

I need to chat or talk to someone as my situation does not fall into available choices. I have and own Adobe Acrobat Pro. Somehow Adobe Acrobat DC got installed on my desktop. I would like to delete it but the uninstall has an X in the corner.

Sign out of your account... Uninstall... run the Cleaner...

-for non-Cloud programs you need to DE-activate before uninstalling

I have the same problem. Notice, please, how many steps are listed in the complicated uninstall procedure. And, for those of you who have tried it, notice how many of these steps do not work (and require further system digging). Then, compare, please, that whole impossible uninstall process with the one-click ease of INSTALL and you will have your proof that Adobe products are designed for Adobe marketing purposes and not really for user purposes.
