Long ago, when Adobe's products started regularly being exposed as being full of security holes, I decided to go with Sumatra PDF. It's a really basic reader, and doesn't try to do more than that. That philosophy made me like it from the get-go, and I've never changed my mind since, in 10+ yrs.(1/2)
(2/2) You can download it from the developer's site. Looks a little iffy, I know, but that's where I've been downloading updates from this whole time, without a prob.

Also, browsers can now be set to be the default PDF reader, and they do a good job, too.
It is absolutely enraging getting these garbage "enhancements" when you open PDFs!!!!
