Question

Need to remove "Free 7-Day Trial" button

I am deploying Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and I am required to remove the big blue button you see when viewing a PDF that says "Free 7-Day Trial"
 
I have tried checking Disable upsell in the Acrobat Customization Wizard.
I have tried setting this DWORD value: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\DC\FeatureLockDown DWORD "bAcroSuppressUpsell" = 1
None of it works.

I was able to do this on the primay launch window of adobe reader with a GPO and regedit(s)

added 3 reg keys (Dwords) BUT if you click 'fill & sign, or Add a stamp' the option for 7 day free trial is there. 😞


Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown\benablePersistentButton=0

 

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown\cServices\bUpdater=0

 

Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\WOW6432Node\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown\bAcroSuppressUpsell=1

Hi bkehl ,

 

Thank you for the information, and sorry about the delay.

 

Would you mind trying the steps suggested in the correct marked answer by "nathanmnz" on the following community thread with a similar discussion: https://community.adobe.com/t5/enterprise-teams-discussions/adobe-acrobat-reader-dc-disable-start-free-trial/m-p/11388366#M28883

 

Let us know how it goes.

All companies are now a p.i.t.a.  They think they have answered all possible questions, but they haven't and they got rid of all staff, so customers are helpless!!!!
