COMPLETELY Uninstall Reader DC

New Here ,
May 14, 2016 May 14, 2016

Hello,

I desperately want to get rid of DC, but even when I use programs such as "AppCleaner" I cannot get rid of Adobe DC within Safari. When I open a pdf in safari, it should default to Preview (so much faster than DC). Even though I tried my best to get rid of DC, I get the message below (see screenshot).

I just want to be able to use Preview in safari again.

I have had he same problem with an earlier edition of Reader, and I fixed the problem by going to Library-Internet Plugins and deleting the Adobe plugins. This time, however, they are not there and I can't delete them for DC.

I'm pretty dissatisfied with how cluttered and disorganized Adobe has made the uninstall process for Reader.

Thanks,

Patrick

go to your HD/Library/Internet Plug-in folder and remove the Adobe plug-ins. Quit and restart Safari, then Preview is default again.

Thank you so much. I can't believe this whole time I had gone to the "hidden" library folder (where you hold down the option key under the "go" menu in finder). This definitely fixed the issue.
