Remove Add-Ins from Microsoft products

I understand this question probably does not belong in the photoshop community.

Who know which catagory it goes in?  I picked the photoshop community because it has a lot of followers.

I use a few adobe products through creative cloud.  And adobe seems happy to install their bloatware all over my computer and the apps on my computer.

My MS Office programs all have adobe bloatware.

I will picke Excel as an example.  Adobe installs an "acrobat" menu on the ribbon in Excel.  Never need it.  No need to have it there.

It is simple to remove 1 time.
File => Options => Add-ins => Manage - Com Add-ins => Go = > Uncheck - Acrobat PDFMaker Office COM Addin

I have done the above 100 times... and as soon as some adobe update runs...  it is turned back on.

What a complete rude thing to do.  How do I get these adobe Add-ins permentantly turned off.

Since Photoshop doesn't install these types of items, I'm moving this over to the Acrobat forums
