You can use below command in your task to remove it.

msiexec /x AcroRead.msi

This could differ by version and that’s if the MSI is present. Here’s what I did in my environment.

//Uninstall any current versions of Reader if applicable
if {exists regapp "AcroRd32.exe"}
wait msiexec.exe /X {(name of key whose (value "displayname" of it as string contains "Adobe Reader") of key "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall" of registry)} /qn
endif

This is a nice catch-all for any version.
