adobe takes over the default app for pdf's

Hi All, I'm on 10.15.7 Catalina. I want PDF's to open in the Preview app. I set Preview to be the default app for PDFs. Somehow, Adobe Reader keeps taking back the default app role anyway. Without asking me. How can I prevent it from taking over? I sometimes use it, so it's not like I want to delete the app.

Mac Pro, macOS 10.15

Use the "get Info" (control click on the icon) to change the Open With app.
