I tried to extract .msi from the .exe using "acrobatreaderdc.exe -sfx_nu -sfx_o"Path" -sfx_ne" and other variations of that. I am still unable to extract the .msi. Everything this command does is start the installation. Can anyone help me with this subjekt?

What is the file size of the EXE? Where did you download (exact page?)

The file is 1MB, i downloaded it directly from the offical adobe website ( https://acrobat.adobe.com/de/de/acrobat/pdf-reader.html )

I was suspecting that. I did sign a distribution license, but the "For full installers:" is empty. Since i am not allowed to answer that email, and since there are no other contact information below, i am not sure if the empty field is supposed to be empty or not. But i guess this wasn't supposed to happen?


Hmm, I have an idea. From https://get2.adobe.com/uk/reader/otherversions/ I was able to download the full 169M installer by choosing "Windows Server 2012".
