Question

Adobe Reader DC - ADelRCP.exe prompts for admin rights

I've deployed Adobe Reader DC using the msi and transform created with the Acrobat Customization Wizard DC. 

It install fine but when users first run Reader they are prompted for an administrator credentials because the program C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\ADelRCP.exe is trying to run.

Our users do have local admin rights.  How do I prevent this popup occuring on Reader startup and what does this ADelRCP.exe do?

Hi,


ADelRCP.exe  is the PDF preview handler of acrobat reader. It should normally not popup again once you have allowed it to be set as default PDF previewer on a computer!!!

Hi,

We have same issue on our side with terminal server or Citrix, users aren't allowed to launch UAC programs. Does I need to compile with Windows App compatibility ? Or Adobe can provide something to fix ?
