Acrobat patches fail to install with "1706" Invalid Source errors

I'm seeing a majority of computers in my environment fail to apply the latest 11.0.16 Acrobat patch (Pro and Standard installs) due to "invalid source" errors.  Looking at the actual patch log (\\computer\c$\Windows\Temp) gives the message: "Error 1706.No valid source could be found for product Adobe Acrobat XI Pro.  The Windows installer cannot continue."

The full 11.0.16 packages for Standard and Pro also fail to install as if its looking for a source path that doesn't exist.

SCCM 2012 R2 is being used to deploy the patch (imported via SCUP) and the applications.

Anyone else seen the issue?  Is a full uninstall / reinstall the only fix?  Thanks!

I have the same problem when deploying updates using SCCM application. Looks like the problem is only when SCCM install it as System User. It works ok when running the install with admin account. As a work around, I basically run the script using SCCM Task Sequence PS commnad with admin user.
