Sorry for answering a different question, but have you considered using
a different PDF viewer + annotation application? Okular
<https://okular.kde.org/> is free and available on Windows (including
from outside Microsoft store). Its annotation features include all
kinds of highlights, arrows and lines, both straight and
arbitrarily-shaped, quickly available from the "annotations" panel.
