How do I reinstall Adobe Acrobat Pro DC after computer crash

I purchased Adobe Acrobat Pro DC last spring and installed it on my PC.  That PC crashed and needed a factory reset.  How can I reinstall the Adobe software now that I have the computer back?  It tells me that my serial # is invalid (probably because it thinks it's already being used).

When you have a non-functioning computer and can't deactivate a serial number

Be sure to ONLY ask for activation support to adjust your activation count

You install programs exactly the same way you did the 1st time... put your disc in the drive and enter your serial number when asked

.

Download & Install instructions https://forums.adobe.com/thread/2003339 may help

-includes a way to go to a page to download Adobe programs if you don't have a disc or drive
