Problems with installing Adobe CS 6 on Windows 8.1 Pro

Hello,

I've been trying and trying to install all of my programs from CS6 Design Standard on my notebook (Windows 8.1 Pro), but errors kept on occuring. First try: only Illustrator (64bit) was successfully installed. Second try: Photoshop (64bit) and Bridge (64) were successfull. But InDesign and Acrobat are just unable to install.

I've already tried numerous times to reinstall all of the programs from Adobe (also used Adobe Cleaner), but nothing helps installing successfully those two.

I was really looking forward to work with my CS6 on the new computer, but this is just so frustrating... please help me. Any ideas?

Right click the EXE and select a compatibility mode in the option window

Run as Administrator http://forums.adobe.com/thread/969395 to assign FULL permissions may help... says Encore, but sometimes required for ALL Adobe programs (this is NOT the same as using an Administrator account)
