I have always been able to open and read Acrobat files without a subscription . Since Monday, Jan 3 2022 I get a pop up asking me to buy or take 7 day free trial.When close the pop up , it closes out of the pdf file. 

Has something changed? I am using Google Chrome browser

Install and use Acrobat Reader.

I tried that.

It didn't work.

It goes into an endless loop, where it pops up the window asking me to buy or try, and when I close that pop-up, Acrobat quits.

Have you managed to solve this? 

Using the free version of Adobe Acrobat Reader and this message started popping a few weeks ago. Cannot open certain PDF files, as the files close as soon as I close the notification that is offering 7-days trial on converting to PDF files.
