I updated Adobe Acrobat DC from version 19.10.20100.325521 to 19.12.20035.332343 on Windows 7 SP1 x64 Ultimate, and I see that I lost 467.628032 MB in the process. Since the update seems minor, I assume that most of the lost space comes from update temporary files. The update was done through Adobe Acrobat DC -> Help -> Check for updates.
Where are Adobe Acrobat DC update temporary files located?
I unsuccessfully tried (the update was done on 2019-07-14 at around 8 PM):
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Temp\C:\Windows\InstallerI searched for
AcrobatDCUpd1901220035.mspsince that the filename of the update I see on (mirror).

The main Roaming dir in Windows 7/10 is:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Acrobat\DC
But, After I follow Adobe Acrobat, found that in next dir with last modify files after acrobat update:
C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Local\Temp
Still in Temp you can't found the files, since Adobe delete this files after update was complete/fail. The extra storage you have may be clean using Windows clean tool, just type in start 'cleanmgr'. If after that you still finding this extra using, it probably extra files that the software need.
I know this thread is a few months old, but I had this question myself, as my FW was blocking the download of the Acrobat DC update and I had to go thru some diagnose & testing to correct my FW policies.
I found the Adobe Acrobat DC update file(s) in:
C:\ProgramData\Adobe\ARM
Hope this helps others.
