Greetings,
I have "Show recently added apps" enabled for the Windows 10 Start menu. I noticed that "Notification Manager for Acrobat Reader" was recently added. How can I find out what this is? Searching Adobe turns up nothing.
Thanks,
Shane.

Hi,
We have added a UWP app named "Notification Manager for Adobe Reader" to support push notifications on Win 10 environment. It supports all types of notifications about any change in the status of the documents that you shared for viewing, reviewing and signing. More info is available at Document Cloud notifications. ​

I run a univesity computer lab where Adobe apps are secondary and I would also like to remove this icon for general users and not have Adobe Cloud Desktop open on startup.

I don't want it running on my computer. Please tell us how to remove it, or how to stop it from starting automatically.
I think Adobe should have told software users this on Adobe's own initiative. That is responsible behavior. Now please repair this shortcoming by giving us the proper information at several users' request. Thank you.

I have just turned it off in Win 10 using the sequence Settings -> Privacy -> Background Apps -> Notification Manager for Adobe Acrobat (turn it off)

I'm hoping this is the solution I am looking for - despite turning it of in MSC, Services and Task Scheduler, it still finds a way to try and run. Most recently, it crashed when I did a manual updates check through Acrobat DC.

Here's how I remove it from my windows 10 computer:-
1) Click start menu.
2) Point the cursor on the apps (notification manager for acrobat reader) in the start menu.
3) Right click and then select uninstall.
Voila! Done.
Hope this helps.

Unfortunately pressing "uninstall" does nothing on my machine, well after I press uninstall it gives me the "are you sure" button (it asks again, like all the other win 10 apps, it's just that nothing happens.
I tried the other idea up above also, going into "Privacy" in settings and turning it off in Background Apps, unfortunately, it's not there. My next option will be to try uninstalling Reader. If anyone at Adobe reads this, I am a loyal but very frustrated customer. I can't even find any reference to it anywhere to find out how it gets into startup!

Adobe will not let me edit my post. I want to tell all that you will need to use Take Ownership before it will delete. https://www.top-password.com/take-ownership-pro.html
