I have a full Creative Cloud subscription and work on a Windows PC Desktop computer. My Creative Cloud Desktop shows that I have Acrobat Pro installed. However, when I click on the OPEN button within the Creative Cloud Desktop app, it opens Acrobat Reader instead of Acrobat Pro. Why won't Pro open? My hunch is that the Adobe believes that my PC is a tablet, because Reader is default for Mobile and Tablets. Is there a way to disable Reader? My wish is to use Acrobat Pro for everything PDF-realted. I never want to use Reader for any purpose.
Acrobat and Reader are the same application now. It switched from one to the other based on your account's status. If you have a valid subscription for Acrobat it should open it as such; Otherwise, it will open as Reader.
That is correct, I have a valid subscription for Acrobat, therefore it should open as such. I am requesting advice on how to troubleshoot a situation in which it is not operating as it should.
If you have installed Acrobat Reader 64-bit and you purchase an Acrobat subscription, the Acrobat Reader 64-bit application will upgrade to become a fully functional Acrobat 64-bit application. For more information please check the help page https://adobe.ly/4lRNm3j
