Silent install Adobe Reader DC 64x

Community Beginner ,
Mar 23, 2023 Mar 23, 2023

Hello friends, 
I would like to distribute Adobe Reader DC via Workspace One and in order to do that I have to get the installer to start in the silent mode.
I have tried several commands like /s, /?, /help, /sAll, /qn, /quiet.... etc. and all of them just start the .Exe normally. I also found an Msi file but that one just has the 32 Bit Version.

So my question is, how do I start the .exe silently? Anyone could help me there?

Hi @Alparslan28930670q3kf ,

 

You must refer to additional guidance using the  Acrobat Desktop Virtualization for Teams and Enterprise (or the Enterprise Toolkit):

 

 

 

Most important see here:

 

 

If I understood  the  link  above correctly, the full silent install option is not available for Adobe Reader.

 

Additionally, if I am not mistaken, before you deploy any installtion package (.msi) remotely, it is easier if you customize an installation package into a new .msi taylored to the needs of your work environment.

 

Also see this other considerations:

 

 

Nevertheless,  the customization wizard will provide you with the option to instruct the installer in which mode it should install (Interactively, Unattended, Silently).

 

Note that there may be licensing distribution requirements to consider.

 

The 64bit versions are available for download using  the link below:

 

 

Is that the download link that you used?

 

The multilingual Acrobat installer supports 64 bit installer versions.

I think this is a deployment (Workspace One) question more than an Acrobat one.

Ah sorry I kind off explained it wrong. 
So before I can deploy it via Workspace one I always test it out on my own PC via CMD.
So normally you can launch most .exe files in cmd silently with the /s command. 
"setup.exe /s" for Adobe Acrobat Reader DC this doesnt work for some reason.
What I would like to know is how I can install Adobe Acobat Reader DC on my own PC via CMD silently.

Thanks for the help and again sorry for the mistake.

Hey I got another question, is there any Installer for the free Version of Adobe Acrobat Reader DC? I am unable to find these. 
https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-dc-downloads.html
https://get.adobe.com/de/reader/
This one only has Standard and Pro while the other one only has a simple Exe with no way of starting it silently.

I thought (but I may be wrong) that you were sent a link when you received a redistributon license. Is that not the case?

Don't forget you WILL need a redistribution license.
