bUpdater and Feature Lockdown

For those interested in disabling Adobe Acrobat DC updates on their Macs, there are two ways to achieve this. You can either disable the Updater category in Preferences or edit the Windows registry to change the value of the bUpdater registry entry.

To disable the Updater category, simply navigate to your Adobe Reader preferences and toggle off the Updater option. Alternatively, if you're familiar with editing the Windows registry, you can verify the following registry entry: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Adobe\Acrobat Reader\11.0\FeatureLockDown.

By changing the value of this registry entry to 1, you'll be able to toggle on or off the Updater category in Preferences. If you delete the bUpdater registry entry or change its value to 0, the Updater will be disabled, and Adobe Reader automatic updates won't occur.

In conclusion, we're committed to continually improving Adobe Acrobat DC through user feedback. By following these guidelines and submitting your ideas and suggestions, you'll help shape the future of our product. Remember to always follow the platform guidelines to ensure a smooth and productive experience for all users.
