Adobe Resource Synchronizer suddenly causing a pop-up

I read through the various posts here.  This is beyond annoying, and the paid service to convert .pdf to .docx I just renewed ceased working.  $ lost, I needed it for work, went looking for another product.  Basic version of iris17 (Canon)  seems to be doing the job, though more expensive.

Just trashed the Adobe product.  Frustration level was way too high!

I didn't think I'd come back ever but I felt being responsible to report my progress with regard to the topic. The answer marked as a useful one is NOT. Earlier in this discussion, out of despair and acting solely on intuition - something that IT guys dismiss entirely - I suggested to remove AdobeResourceSynchronizer.app from the main app bundle. So did I. I was finally able to connect to and open any file on Acrobat.com from within the app but the button to upload to Acrobat.com became inactive though the one that lets save to it remained working. I then quitted Reader, put back AdobeResourceSynchronizer.app to its original parent location, re-launched the app  and to my surprise I regained lost ability to upload to Acrobat.com. Upon relaunch I was prompted to  allow access and hit "Allow Always" thus dismissing it. All that happened some 30 min ago and during this time I opened, quitted it several times: the pop-up went away and the v3 entry in Keychain Access.app upon several examinations kept containing AdobeResourceSynchronizer.app. I have to add all my recent changes appeared non-destructed.

The worst thing remains, through, that is, you never know whether the issue returns. Obviously the chances are great, because I feel the fundamental solution hasn't been worked out and offered yet. Morally this is a common feature of user experience accompanied by dealing with Adobe software in that you can never be sure that something won't break at any moment or heal for good.

Also I don't know if this workaround (or partial solution as you may call it) will pave its way into the ears of Adobe engineers, I also am not aware if they haven't stumbled upon this trick on their already at this point. I just would like someone from Adobe staff that regularly peruses these forums came across my findings and took into account while troubleshooting in the course of ironing out connectivity issues. Something's definitely incorrect with how this helper app makes call to ports on Mac computers regardless of both OS X and Adobe Acrobat Reader versions.

Update 1. The pop up returned after ~2 hours of absence. AdobeResourceSynchronizer.app is still present in v3 entry of Keychain Access and so far syncing works.

I am utterly frustrated by this ridiculous bug. Before answering, would the support person PLEASE VERIFY THAT THE PROPOSED SOLUTION ACTUALLY WORKS so that this issue can be closed.   The only other option is to permanently remove all of the Adobe junk from my machines and buy a product that works.

Have tried every suggestion - nothing works.  Pop-up continues every time I open a PDF doc.  Can't even find Adobe Resource Syncronizer on my iMac (OS 10.13.1), using Firefox Quantum (v57).
