Outlook keeps showing the message "Open PDFs in Adobe Acrobat" hovering whenever I get PDF attachmen

Whenever I look at an email that has PDF attachments, outlook pops up a small window with the message "Open PDFs in Adobe Acrobat" (see attached screenshot) hovering over and hiding a small portion of the email, and I have to click the small "x" to close it each time - which is a bit annoying. Any way to stop this small window from appearing every time? (without removing the plugin).

This worked for me! Thank you!

Hi,

 

This is probably a setting in outlook that needs to be changed, if available. I don't think there is anything in Acrobat that controls that.

Wrong. It is not an outlook setting.  Adobe wants to take over everything.  Just be a PDF editor please.

You are correct, the person's computer was most like infected by a virus known as Adobe PDF
