Hi, thanks for posting on the Adobe Community! Something might have changed the file association leading to all files defaulting to Adobe Acrobat. You can change the default apps for specific file formats using the steps mentioned here: https://adobe.ly/40ddtst
Let us know if this helps!
Thanks,

The simple fix for broken file associations is to uninstall and reinstall.
This is a weakness in the CC installer. If you have "remove old versions" checked, it uninstalls the old version after the new one is installed. The outgoing version then takes file associations with it on the way out, leaving them orphaned.
To avoid this in the future, always follow version order when installing, and reverse version order when uninstalling. Last in > first out. Then file associations are always correctly transferred.
