How do I install two separate versions of Adobe Acrobat and Reader on my two separate PC accounts?

I have upgraded my laptop and I have my work and personal user accounts separated. I have Adobe Acrobat  Pro installed on my work account with a subscription and in the past I was able to install Adobe Acrobat Reader on my personal account. Now, when I try to install Adobe Reader on my personal account it tells me a newer version of Adobe Acrobat is already installed and cannot be installed. Can someone help? I would rather not use Microsoft Edge as my PDF reader on my personal account for a number of reasons the main one being I have files saved in Adobe Reader in my Cloud that I will be losing access to.

You can use Acrobat Pro on your work account AND on your personal account, the licence is valid for both.

Do you mean on two separate accounts on the same computer? I don't think that's possible any longer, since Adobe merged the installers and since the installation applies to the whole computer, not just to a specific account.
