How to turn off AdobeNotificationClient.exe for nVidia SLI update

Community Beginner ,
Sep 19, 2019 Sep 19, 2019

In order to perform a recurring modification required by my nVidia Control Panel, I must turn off "AcrobatNotificationClient.exe".  I cannot find this running program to turn it off.  I have looked in the Task Manager under Processes and Services, I have also looked using msconfig and do not see it anywhere.

 

The only solution I have found it to uninstall Acrobat, make the updates to the nVidia cards, then reinstall - which is a real pain.

 

Any and all advise appreciated.

Thank you for your response. I have turned off update service - in fact, I have turned off all Adobe programs and processes running, as shown in the task manager (programs tab and services tab), and using MSCONFIG, and using SERVICES.MSC. Still, this little .exe keeps running. I also cannot locate this Acrobatnotificationclient.exe file anywhere on my hard drive.

Solution -  Found the process that turns this .exe off.

"Notification Manager for Adobe Acrobat"

Stopping this process kills the "AdobeNotificationClient.exe" program allowing nVidia to do it's thing.

Thanks!

My dude, thanks a ton for this. I was going to lose my mind over this, because apparently it was running but didn't show up in the Task Manager, and uninstallation is impossible while it is running. There isn't even a single YouTube video addressing this particular problem, and now finally, after going through here, I have been able to uninstall the software.
