Question

How do I install ALL acrobat features

Hi
I have a CC pro licence for acrobat and I'd like to install ALL the modules/features that I am licenced for so they are available whenever I need them?

How do I do that?
Background: I needed to preflight some files this morning, something I don't do very often, and acrobat told me it was installing the feature, then failed, and suggested I download a new installer, unzip it, run setup, restart my laptop, start Acrobat and try again, revisit the install preflight question, relaunch Acrobat, reopen the rather large file for a third time, and then run the preflight. 
Cost me an hour. I would hate to go through that again everytime I need a different feature.

If I remember correctly, when you use ‘repair’, there is an option somewhere that allows you to install all optional components (Preflight, Redact, etc.).

@feargal.hogan go to the Menu in the top left corner, or alternatively access the Help menu. From there, select Repair Installation, which is the safest method to force all missing or optional core components onto your drive without risking a full uninstallation. Hopefully, the repair process installs the features you're licensed for are available whenever you need them

I've done that. But it hasn't reported anything. How do I know its worked?
Is there any way to check what parts are installed and which arent?
