Adobe reader requires a restart

[Uhtred]

Really?! Why??? All I did was install an update, and I have to reboot?? Not even my graphics drivers require me reboot so what gives?

Adobe bloat. Get Sumatra.

This really hacks me off. Same when iTunes requires it. Stupid big corporations with their stupid annoying lack of user awareness.

Try Foxit reader.

Adobe Acrobat is a well known piece of malware.

Adobe Acrobat is a well known piece of malware.

I wouldn't say it was malicious, but it is crap.

 

[Mattus]

Not malware, just bloated with hundreds of features that the average user never ever needs.

Try Foxit reader.

This. Haven't used Acrobat reader in years.

Sumatra is the way forward

I used to use Foxit, but it became an update fest with millions of plugins. Sumatra's install seems a lot cleaner

May have to give Sumatra a go too.
