Stop using acrobat reader as default

[vivecao81974916]

I must have set acrobat reader as default to open PDF - I do not want that to happen, I want PDF files to open as just that, PDF files. How do I restore my settings? I am on a mac.

QUICKEST WAY:

Right-click on a PDF and click on "Get info".

- In the window that appears, click on "Open With" drop down.

- Select the application you want to be the defautl from the list of apps.

- ***KEY*** Click on "Change All'.

- Then click on "Continue" on the pop-up window.

I'm on a new Macbook pro, and ever since I got it Adobe has continually defaulted to open my PDFs—despite the fact that I have another PDF editor App that i've been using for years that is most certainly set as my Default. Why is Adobe overriding my default settings? The only thing I can do is manually open each file and save to "always open with" the app of choice - but this is obviously a ridiculous waste of time and energy.

So far, it is appearing that when I say "always open with", it only applies to that particular pdf and has to be done with each one. I want pdfs to never open with Acrobat unless I choose to. It's super annoying.

I have installed the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader - Free however; when I attempt to open a PDF file, I am taken to Adobe Acrobat and asked to undertake a 7 day trial for Acrobat Pro but I don't need the Pro version just the Free PDF Reader version.  What am I doing wrong

I want to delete Adobe. When I convert my files ms word is it OK then to remove the Adobe application?
