This popped up on my work laptop yesterday. Very annoying.

Crap like this is why I use Corel.

If you can avoid Adobe, FoxIt Reader isn't too bad. I have to uncheck some offer every time it updates, but I've never had it bug me otherwise.

Firefox can open/edit PDFs too, so you could get rid of Foxit since it's obnoxious as well.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

It's more to do with workflow for me. If I close the wrong Firefox window I could lose my session with 10k tabs. 😆

I know there's ways to recover but last time I really considered it I found it more comfortable to have a separate app for PDFs. Do what you feel. ✌️

BTW I don't work for FoxIt nor has any money changed hands between me and them. It's just what I wound up using circa 2015.

Don't they know, Windows comes with a preinstalled PDF reader, making this Adobe bloatware pretty much obsolete?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 months ago

Yes, they know. The message is asking the user to change from their default to Adobe Reader.

Win11 is full of these kinds of ads, especially for OneDrive and Office

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 months ago

Win 10 too.

Windows is like paying to rent a whole house only to move in and find lodgers already living in all of the rooms.
