Documentation on DISABLE_FIU_CHECK and CLEANUP_CEFFOLDER

Having an issue where msiexec is running with these two flags when users run/close acrobat. DISABLE_FIU_CHECK, CLEANUP_CEFFOLDER. 

I cannot find what DISABLE_FIU_CHECK does, I see it referenced on other pages, but on the main msi args page it cannot be found.
It seems the CLEANUP_CEFFOLDER removes old copies of acrocef_* in the install directory, but no documentation shows if it works using the sccm install listed here.

Does anybody know what these do, as well if the work like this.

Setup.exe /sAll /rs /rps /msi DISABLE_FIU_CHECK=1 CLEANUP_CEFFOLDER

Glad I'm not alone. I can't find any documentation of what DISABLE_FIU_CHECK=1 does. I'll ask enterprise support today and get back to this

Ok I'm told DISABLE_FIU_CHECK is the new CLEANUP_CEFFOLDER. They both are to do with cleaning up redundant CEF Folders. Also from Enterprise Support:

 

"DISABLE_FIU_CHECK=1 New command line parameter is included while invoking Acrobat binary to mitigate conflicting process to be popped up from Acrobat binary side. This parameter can be recognized by only latest Acrobat installers (20.xx.xxx.xxxxx). Old installers cannot recognize this parameter."

One of the many actions in Acrobat and Reader installers is "check for files in use". This check helps preventing possible System REBOOT request after installer transaction is finished. In some cases it fails installers if a specific file(s) found being in use.

Public MSI property DISABLE_FIU_CHECK set to 1 and provided to the installer(s) disables above check. DISABLE_FIU_CHECK property has been a part of Reader and Acrobat installers for at least 15 years.

It has nothing to do with CLEANUP_CEFFOLDER
