How can I stop being forced to log in every time I look at a document?  I can't even close adobe to check my email.  Is there an alternative to adobe yet?

==========

What kind of document -- PDF?

Which version of Acrobat do you have?  The FREE Acrobat Reader or a paid Acrobat Pro DC plan?

I don't know why this happens to some people, it's certainly bad, but why would you close your Adobe software just to look at your email? Seems much better to keep it running.
