Adobe AcroCEF has stopped working after auto update from 32bit to 64bit Acrobat Reader DC
Acrobat DC has recently automatically updated itself from 32bit to 64bit, now when we open DC on the Terminal Server we get the error Adobe AcroCEF has stopped working and the following error in the eventlog. This happens on all terminal servers with the latest 64bit Adobe DC installed.

We also get an error 'Adobe Acrobat Reader cannot open inside an AppContainer in Protected Mode due to an incompatibility with your system configuration. Would you like to proceed?'
a) Open Reader with the AppContainer disabled inside Protected Mode
b) Do not open Reader due to the AppContainer system incompatibility
I have tried both options here after reinstalling and AcroCEF still crashes. I have had to completely remove 64bit version from all terminal servers and disable Automatic updates via the registry as there is no option to disable in the program. I would like to keep Adobe up to date but not if it's going to break my Citrix application servers. Please advise. Thanks
