So basically I only use Acrobat for my offline documents (I store them in OneDrive instead of Adobe's cloud), and I don't use the phone app either. That's why I don't need all the UI parts and ads related to these aspects. Is there any way of getting rid of them trough Windows' Registry Editor or something similar? Thank you in advance!

I use Foxit pdf reader (free); I do have the older version and no ads, not sure about the newer version. They wanted to save everything on their servers, and that is a no-go for me. My private docs on their servers? In a pigs eye. Ha!

I wouldn't call "Use Acrobat from mobile" an advertisement as such. The other items you highlighted are features and options related to Adobe Acrobat Pro.

 

If you don't want to see the Acrobat Pro Home screen then you can bypass it by double-clicking on the PDF file you want to work on in a File Explorer window or Start menu shortcut.

I'm curious...do these in-app ads get fed from the same ad domains as web ads, or are they from completely different sources? I'm just wondering if it would be feasible to block some of them at the router level or with Pi-hole or something similar.
