How to disable annoying popup and sound on PDF creation?

Community Beginner ,
Oct 11, 2019 Oct 11, 2019

I searched for this and the instructions posted in 2017 do not work.

Windows 10 v1903 Enterprise 64-bit

Acrobat Pro DC v2019.008.20071

Every time I print to PDF, I get an annoying blue popup window with an audible sound telling my that my PDF has been created.

I want to disable it; I don't need nanny notices.

I have tried all of the recommendations out there on Google with respect to Windows settings, print notifications, yet it persists. I *only* get this annoyance when printing to Adobe PDF.

It has "Acrotray" text on the popup, yet this behavior persists even after I stop Acrotray from the Windows task manager.

 

Where does this vile thing live and how do I kill it permenantly?

 

Thank you.

I don't think you can turn off the PDF created sound. It is the most annoying thing ever. I don't want to turn off my computer sound, just adobe sounds! Why would they do this? I miss old adobe when things were better. New version is BAD! FAIL ADOBE!

Two ways to disable:

1) When the PDF generates, the "AcroTray" will open...click on the gear icon to launch settings and disable the Acrotray notifications

2) In Control Panel > Sounds > disable Notifications  by setting to "(None)"

 

Hope one of these helps!

When the pop up opens up in the bottom right corner click the 3 dots > "go to settings" > use the slider for "notification" to off. 

Hope that helps
