Adobe Acrobat Pro DC Continuous Cloud Synchronization must be disabled.

By default, Adobe online services are tightly integrated in Adobe Acrobat. When the Adobe Cloud synchronization is disabled it prevents the synchronization of desktop preferences across devices on which the user is signed in with an Adobe ID (including phones).

Verify the following registry configuration:

Using the Registry Editor, navigate to the following: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Adobe\Adobe Acrobat\DC\FeatureLockDown\cServices

Value Name: bTogglePrefsSync Type: REG_DWORD Value: 1

If the value for bTogglePrefsSync is not set to “1” and Type is not configured to REG_DWORD or does not exist, this is a finding.
