Adobe Acrobat Reader DC (22.003.20282) prompting UAC to install updates

I have created the Adobe Reader DC 22.003.20282 package with updates turned off using the customization wizard, and later in order to enable automatic updates again I removed the following registry value:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\DC\FeatureLockDown]

"bUpdater"=dword:00000000

Then I ran check for updatest manually from Adobe Acrobat Help tab and got the notification, update is available, when I clicked on Download and Install, it prompted UAC and asked for credentials.

Is this the behaviour I should expect or is there some other registry values I need to remove? we are going to enable Adobe Reader DC auto updates in our environment but all of our users do not have admin access, please advise how can I allow auto updates for Adobe Reader DC without admin credentials?
