    Most likely a related problem:
    Apparently after any use of Acrobat Reader (version 2022.003.20282) on Windows 10 Professional (version 22H2, OS build 19045.2486) multiple cascading temporary directories are created and left on PC when user's temporary directory is junction to a different drive, e.g. \Users\me\Appdata\Local\Temp is a junction to d:\tmp_files.

    Example problem is shown by output of "dir /s Temp":
    29779 File(s) 28,050,501,055 bytes
    26291 Dir(s) 21,921,017,856 bytes free

    After going into Temp\acrobat_sbx and executing "rmdir /s acrobat_sbx",
    1873 File(s) 1,973,288,367 bytes
    1667 Dir(s) 21,921,034,240 bytes free

    i.e 27,906 files and 24,624 directories removed.
