Adobe Acrobat - Free PDF Reader vs Premium

Is it in any way possible to have the Premium version of Adobe Acrobat installed, but only use the Premium-features when I want to - meaning I dont have to log on every time? 

On general terms I would like to use the Adobe Acrobat Free PDF Reader, but I want the possibility to log on and then use the Premium features the few times I need them. Is that possible? And if so, how?

After I upgraded the Free-version to the Premium-version I only get the options to either log on or to quit Adobe Acrobat entirely. I have had to uninstall the software and reinstall the Free-version now to get access to the "simple" features. But after installation it asks me to upgrade it again, and it says that if I dont upgrade I wont get access to the Premuim-features. But from my experience, if I upgrade I wont be able to use the software at all as a Free-version/without logging on.


I use the software on multiple devices, and sometimes I just want to be able to use the Free version to not have to log of my work on other devices. 

Hope for some reflections.
Thank you!

Hi @ToneD

 

I hope this message finds you well. Thank you for reaching out.

 

Our 64-bit application represents a unified platform for both Acrobat and Acrobat Reader, offering enhanced performance and functionality. Notably, if you've previously installed Acrobat Reader in its 64-bit version and later opt for an Acrobat subscription, your Acrobat Reader will seamlessly transition into a fully featured Acrobat 64-bit application.

For further details, please refer to our help page: About Acrobat Reader DC Migration to 64-bit

 

Hope this information will help.

This is no longer possible since Acrobat is delivered in a unified version.
The only alternative is to install Foxit Reader, which is also done by all PDF form designers who need to be able to test their forms before delivering them to their customers.
