New to this community, hello. I need Acrobat Reader and can't use AR DC as it doesn't support Windows Vista. Which version should I get, with my 32 bit computer. And do I download both the program and the update file?  Thank you!

Hi Janice,

Acrobat 10.1.4 is the last version which is compatible with Windows Vista. You can download it by going to the link below:-

Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Install for all versions

Select "Do you have a different language or Operating system".

Select the OS as Windows Vista.

Select the language and then it will show the version available for your platform.

Hope this helps!

Thanks,

Tanvi

Thank you Aadesh and Tanvi, I did download AR for my operating system, Vista. Now with 21 extracted files, there are no instructions which to run first! There's an installer, then also an installer patch; then two set up files, one an 'application' and one 'configuration setting. Then a whole bunch of other stuff. I assume the rest will get picked up by the program once I get the first one(s) run... Which is done first? No instructions on the website... Help! I really appreciate this, thank you!

Hi Janice,

Kindly check in the lsit of installed programs on your machine. Adobe Reader should be there , because when you click on download , it downloads the set up

When you run the set up, it download and installs Adobe reader on its own.

Thanks,

Hi janicer32398046,

That's correct Reader DC is compatible on Windows 7 and above.

However you can try installing Adobe Reader 11 Adobe - Adobe Acrobat Reader DC Distribution by selection Windows 7 as you operating system.
