I quote myself, i try to make some points.


Reader download seems this, you have to download MUI version and 32/64 bit
appear:

Both get updates from:

	https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/ReleaseNotesDC/index.html


BUT 32 bit and 64 bit installer are not exactly the same: 32 bit still call
itself 'Adobe Acrobat Reader MUI', while 64 bit call itself 'Adobe Acrobat
(64-bit)'.
Also unpacking the EXE files are different: 32 bit contain an AcroRead*.msi
file, while 64bit contain an AcroPro*.msi file.

After installation, both behave like 'Acrobat reader', but with some
differences.


Most notably, i was able following:

	https://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/acrobatetk/tools/AdminGuide/basicconfig.html

to remove most of the annoying 'upgrade to pro or buy this feature' popup and
windows on 32bit, but seems that 64bit is totally unaware of that.


So, seems that 32bit product is still 'Acrobat Reader', while 64bit is
'Acrobat Pro with some locks'.


Enshittification?!
