The Size of Adobe Reader Installers Through The Years

The Size of Adobe Reader Installers Through The Years

Latest update: 2025-08-25 11:30:02

At the time of writing, the most recent Adobe Reader 25.x.y.z 64-bit
installer for Windows 11 weights 687,230,424 bytes. After
installation, the program includes ‘AI’ (of course), an auto-updater,
sprinkled ads for Acrobat online services everywhere, and 2 GUIs:
‘new’ and ‘old’.

For comparison, the size of SumatraPDF-3.5.2 installer is 8,246,744
bytes. It has no ‘AI’, no auto-updater (though it can check for new
versions, which I find unnecessary, for anyone sane would install it
via scoop anyway), and no ads for ‘cloud storage’.

The following chart shows how the Adobe Reader installer has grown in
size over the years. When possible, 64-bit versions of installers were
used.
