Update
Adobe Reader
You can download it from
https://www.techspot.com/downloads/2083-adobe-reader-dc.html
After installing the latest
Adobe Reader,
uninstall all previous versions.
Note. If you already have Adobe Photoshop® Album Starter Edition installed or do not wish to have it installed
UNcheck the box which says Also Download Adobe Photoshop® Album Starter Edition.
Alternatively, you can uninstall Adobe Reader (33.5 MB), download and install
Foxit PDF Reader(3.5MB) from
HERE.
It's a much smaller file to download and uses a lot less resources than Adobe Reader.
Note: When installing FoxitReader, make sure to UN-check any pre-checked toolbar, or other garbage.
