Caps Lock Works Reversed on Acrobat Adobe on a Remote PC

Hello there,

I'm experiencing an issue, and I can't find any solutions for it, and it is getting annoying.

Here is what the issue is:

I have Adobe Acrobat Pro 2017 installed on a remote computer, which is a server machine.

I log in remotely, RDP, to the server machine where I have Acrobat installed, open the application, and when I try to, for example, add a watermark on the file, it starts typing upper case even though my caps lock is off. When I turn on my caps lock, it starts typing in lower case. It works fine on my computer, local machine. It happens when I try it on the remote session.

A hint: It was working fine before I upgraded the application.

Any idea?

I do not think that Acrobat reverses the caps lock status. The keyboard sends keys to the program. a standard program is even not aware of the caps lock status. Sure, the program can query that as Photoshop does, but I'm not aware of such a functionality in Acrobat.
