Need to use Reader as well as Acrobat

I regularly work on 4 home computers and I have a single Creative Cloud license. I do most of my photo editing on one desktop computer. On the other laptop computers I edit photos occasionally so I have Creative Cloud software installed on them but rarely use it. However, I need to read pdfs on all the computers all the time. But in order to read pdfs I can't use the Adobe pdf reader because Acrobat always opens when I try to open the pdfs and requires a log in, which requires me to log out of Creative Cloud on my other computers. Just to READ a pdf on a computer where I'm not doing any editing. Having to log in and log out of Creative Cloud every time I switch computers is nuts! I'm not editing anything on all the computers at once. I just want to read a pdf with a free pdf reader on one of my laptops. Why do I need to tie up my Creative Cloud license to READ a PDF? In order to get around this, I had to download Foxit PDF reader. But why can't I use the Adobe PDF READER which is free to people who don't buy the Creative Cloud license. Any solutions besides going to another company's pdf reader?
