Does anyone know how to deactivate Adobe PDF reader as my default reader on my Mac?

    If you want to keep Reader, but use the default PDF viewer (Preview) that comes with macOS, then just set Preview as the default reader instead. http://kb.mit.edu/confluence/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=3908296

    in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

     

    p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post if it helps you get responses.
