While Adobe produces some exceptionally great software products, Adobe Updater is one of the most intrusive annoying piece of software which comes bundled with all Adobe products like Adobe Acrobat Reader and Adobe Creative Suite applications, Adobe Updater launches silently in the background starting the downloads without asking for user permission, adding an hardly noticeable icon in system tray as an notification for the update process running in the background, The resource hogging automatic updater can result in slower system performance and huge ISP bandwidth bills.

Surprisingly, unlike other softwares Adobe does not provides an easy to find update preference setting to disable these automatic updates and requires you to dig deep into update options as discussed earlier in our "How To Disable Annoying Adobe Auto-Update" blog post using Adobe Acrobat Reader to disable the updater.
