I only noticed that I got the DC Update because all of my PDF icons looked funny one morning. Co-workers thought I was seeing things, until they got it a day later too, totally without warning. Thanks Obama Adobe!!

You haven't noticed opening a PDF with output preview open and things look like they are missing? Well now you have something to look forward too.

and funnily enough thats how all this excess ram usage started.
sept 1 2017, after a stealthy acrobat update, and it was suddenly major crashville every time i used it... so i am guessing it was some conflict between acrobat and something in my user prefs.... f..k knows what

I just started getting this message in Acro, I found on a forum to rename the plugin for reading
but that didn't stop it, anyone know how to get rid of this?

#125
I'm unsure about selecting don't show this dialog again
I don't want the whole thing not just not showing the dialog

I think I found the fix in preferences, turned off assistive technology

David

is that like an emotional support squirrel in Acrobat?

I think so! Not sure How it got turned on.

Joe

I'm shocked you never ran into that before. I got rid of the annoying dialog box popping up by setting it like this. No idea why those settings work though.

Could that be because you renamed the "Reading" plug-in?
