Adobe Connect SCCM

I was able to execute the installation properly for each using using Bigfix, but you could also do it via group policy.  You need to be able to detect the current logged in user, or use variables which return or bypass the need for related information such as user key and user name.

I've cleaned this up SLIGHTLY to remove some of the more obvious Bigfix-specific code, but be sure you also check for and clean up anything in curly braces { } and any ifs.  That means it's relevance within the action: it's resolving that information to decide the correct solution for each deployment.

//Kill adobeconnectaddin.exe if the program is running for upgrade to run

taskkill /F /IM adobeconnectaddin.exe

// only continue if there is exactly 1 user logged on since this is a profile specific install

// IBM Bigfix script here - you should adapt or skip this section.

continue if {(exists current user) AND (1 = number of logged on users)}

// uninstall older versions

//// if for detection of older versions

if {exists (files "adobeconnectaddin.exe" whose(version of it <= "11.9.980.387") of folders "AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\www.macromedia.com\bin\adobeconnectaddin" of folders (name of current user) of folders "C:\Users")}

//// execution of uninstall with relevance for current user - swap relevance/variable, depending upon your deployment platform

cmd.exe /c "C:\Users\{name of current user}\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\www.macromedia.com\bin\adobeconnectaddin\unins000.exe" /VerySilent

endif

// if related to flash player, I can't remember why but we needed it

if {exists folder "C:\Users\{name of current user}}\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\www.macromedia.com\bin\adobeconnectaddin"}

cmd.exe /c rmdir /q /s "C:\Users\{name of current user}\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\www.macromedia.com\bin\adobeconnectaddin"

endif

// execution of install with relevance (or insert your variable) for user directory.  You can point the installation to the specific user folder!!!  But it doesn't add uninstallation registry keys, so it doesn't show up in A/RP...yet!

AdobeConnectAddinInstaller.exe /VERYSILENT /DIR="C:\Users\{name of current user}\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\www.macromedia.com\bin\adobeconnectaddin"

// Add Uninstall registry entries manually.  This section is in bigfix action script - you could probably convert this to reg add or whatever your platform is pretty quickly, or simply deploy a reg file already containing them!  Just be sure you add it to the HKCU, or the specific user registry hive you're trying to install to.

I recall that this has been attempted in the past, though I'm not sure to what level of success... Here are a few threads that addressed this deployment need.

http://www.connectusers.com/forums/topic/1404/connect-addin-per-user-or-per-computer/

They are older threads, but they all come to the same conclusion, that it cannot be easily done. There may be a solution or tow in these threads though.

It may also be worth reaching out to support to see if they have put a solution together since 2010.
