Acrobat [not Adobe] Pro License issue

So I have an installer for Acrobat 2020, and my license Key. This was purchased as a mass buy, basically to allow 100s of installs.  Never had any issues installing and licenseing. (used it on a few PCs after this incedent with no issue)   

Now I went to install this on a system that someone had already been using Creative Cloud on, and a Acrobat trial license, under there own person email.  When I went to licenese Acrobat 2020 i was given an error saying that my license was -1, and I need to deactivate a license before I could use it. (Like a said, I installed the same .exe and license on a another PC later and it all worked with no issue, so I know the installer and Lciense key are good) 
Digging a bit I ran the CCleaner for Adobe and still got the same issue. 
Does any one have a method to for sure remove all Adobe installs and saved licenese info from a PC so that It does not try to pull the users personal license instead of the Key I give it during install? 

 

Let me know if I missed any imporntat details or if more information is needed. 

Cheers,

Hi @WONG38664989z7kd,

 

Following up to check if your issue is already resolved or not.
You shouldn't get that message if the serial number was for 100 users.  You can try contacting our support: https://www.adobe.com/about-adobe/contact.html log in with your Adobe ID and password, and available support options should be visible to you. 

Let us know if you have further questions.

No it was not, the user just ended up buying a Creative Cloud license as they needed more than jsut Adobe Pro anyway.  I have yet to have an issue with the installer/License an any computer I have used after that one.
