Question

Patch chaining- acrobat.exe gets downgraded.

As per http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/507/cpsid_50720.html I've created a single installation, effectively taking an y 9.x release to 9.3 (current).

However, Acrobat.exe gets downgraded to v9.1.0.163 (even if I start at v9.2 - yet all the other files get upgraded).  When I access the menu About Acrobat Pro... the splash reveals the version to be 9.3.   Something in the chain sequence or an undocumented fix 🙂 ?
  
Here's my sequence updating the ENU version: 
msiexec /p "AcroProStdUpd910_T1T2_incr.msp;AcrobatUpd911_all_incr.msp;AcrobatUpd912_all_incr.msp;AcrobatUpd913_all_incr.msp;AcrobatUpd920_all_incr.msp;AcrobatUpd930_all_incr.msp" REINSTALLMODE=omus REINSTALL=ALL /qb

Need I be concerned?

Feels like I'm blogging here.

If any browser happens to be open while installing the chained patches, certain files (eg. acrobat.exe) do not get updated.  The only way to fix is to do a repair via the ARP or msiexec ... /fpecms.

Thank you... I was having so many problems due to my browser being open... and I didn't even know that was the problem. Thanks again for the information. - RSF

I may have found my own answer at http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/498/cpsid_49880.html outlining the proper patch sequencing.
