Hello Talk,

As per the description above, you want to install Adobe Reader 11 on your machine on which Adobe Reader DC is already installed, Is that correct?

If the latest version of Adobe Reader DC is already installed, you won't be able to install Adobe Reader 11 as Reader 11 is an old version and during installation, it will detect the installation of the latest version and will stop.

Adobe does not recommend the installation of the old version, as Adobe Reader 11 is already declared as an end of support and an end of life product. End of Support means that Adobe no longer provides technical support or distributes runtimes. This policy affects product and security updates for all derivatives of a product or product version (localized versions, minor upgrades, operating systems, dot and double-dot releases, and connector products). For detailed information, please refer to End of support for Adobe Acrobat XI and Reader XI

You may try downloading the older version of Adobe Reader 11 from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/

Feel free to update this discussion for any further assistance.

Regards,

Anand Sri.
