"Automatically install update" preference not working
Trying to set the "updater" preference in Adobe Acrobat on Mac behaves as follows:
- it seems to be on by default
- one can try to turn it off. This step calls for an admin password.
- assuming one gives a correct admin password, the pop-up window closes and it appears that the preference has been changed
- opening the preference panel again shows that the preference has not been changed; "automatically install updates" is still on
This error is occurring with both Acrobat Pro DC 2018 and Acrobat Pro 2017. Base O/S is MacOSX 10.12. O/S and Acrobat are at latest patch levels.

The preference to not automatically install updates used to work, but hasn't lately over the last few updates. The check box doesn't stick after it's deselected.
